What is CARMINA BURANA about?

Carmina Burana — Songs of Beuern. The title reaches back to a Bavarian monastery, where, in the thirteenth century, someone gathered the songs their age refused to keep: drinking poems, love verses, complaints against fate. Carl Orff rescued them from silence in 1937 with music that opens, famously, with a wheel. O Fortuna velut luna — O Fortune, like the moon, changeable, always ascending and then falling. A 180 × 130 cm abstract in oil, painted in Oviedo in 2026. The painting does not illustrate the music. It follows the same logic: accumulation and reversal. Layer upon layer of colour is applied with overwide brushes — reds and yellows and deep blues pressed into the linen. Then the palette knife cuts across, scraping away what was just built. What the knife finds beneath is older: a different decision, a different pressure, a different temperature of paint. The wheel is not shown. The wheel is the method. What survives on this canvas has survived because it was buried deep enough. Fortune, in the medieval sense, does not reward the deserving — it reveals the durable.
