Medium: Acrylic on canvas, palette knife
Dimensions: 19.7 × 23.6 inches
Valuation (each one): $24,000 MXN / $1,400 USD
Frida commands presence through materiality and restraint. Executed exclusively with a palette knife, Aide Peña forgoes the brush to carve form and emotion directly into the canvas. The result is a richly layered surface—architectural, luminous, and precise—where light activates depth from every angle. This is not a depiction, but an interpretation: a contemporary, avant-garde homage to Frida Kahlo’s enduring force, distilled into texture and structure.
THE OPPORTUNITY
This singular work will be presented to the highest bidder at the Grand Auction during the Casa Maya Open House on February 12th, 2026. A rare acquisition for collectors seeking distinction, authorship, and lasting value.
