Remnants of Light
Remnants of Light is an original textured abstract mixed media painting by contemporary artist Sergio Aranda, created in 2021.
Layers of atmospheric blue descend through the composition, moving from luminous icy tones into increasingly deep shades of navy and black. Between these darker strata, fragments of metallic gold emerge across the textured surface like traces of light preserved within the material.
The painting suggests an imaginary landscape without describing a specific place. Vertical marks and fluid traces create a sense of movement, while the heavily textured central passage establishes an almost geological horizon between light and darkness.
Gold plays an essential role in the composition. Rather than functioning simply as decoration, it appears fragmented, partially concealed and embedded within the surface — something discovered rather than applied.
The work is constructed through successive layers of paint, texture and material. Some are exposed while others are almost completely buried, allowing earlier stages of the painting to survive as subtle traces within the finished surface.
Depending on the light and viewing angle, the metallic areas shift in intensity, creating a changing relationship between the tactile gold relief and the surrounding blues.
Part of the Strata of Time collection, Remnants of Light explores the accumulation of matter and the traces left behind through transformation — layers of material becoming layers of memory.
This is a unique, one-of-a-kind original artwork, not a print or reproduction.

Art Care & Preservation
Art Care & Preservation
- Display & Lighting: While the archival varnish provides high-end UV protection, we highly recommend avoiding prolonged exposure to direct, harsh sunlight. To fully appreciate the shifting shadows of the sculptural gesso, display the piece under high-quality ambient lighting or dedicated LED art spotlights.
- Dusting & Cleaning: Due to the rich, sand-crusted organic texture, dust may settle over time. Never use water, liquid cleaners, damp cloths, or chemical solvents on the surface. To clean, gently sweep the textured relief using a dry, clean, soft-bristled brush (such as a premium makeup brush or a soft hake paintbrush).
- Humidity & Temperature: Fine art canvases thrive in stable environments. Display your painting in spaces with controlled humidity and temperature. Avoid hanging the artwork directly above heavy heat sources (like active fireplaces or radiators) or in high-moisture rooms like small, unventilated bathrooms.
- Handling: When moving or hanging your artwork, always hold it securely by the wooden stretcher bar edges. Avoid pressing directly against the center of the canvas to protect the structural tension and the delicate, raised mineral reliefs.
