La Diagonal, contre-allée – Ciels urbains is a contemporary oil painting depicting a Barcelona avenue at dusk, where the sky dominates the composition. The perspective of the road draws the viewer forward, while trees, buildings, and vehicles frame a luminous and shifting sky.
The work explores the relationship between urban structure and atmospheric presence. Warm and cool tones interact within the clouds, creating a tension between movement and stillness, and transforming a familiar city scene into a contemplative visual experience.
Created by Virginie Martin-Blaise, this painting reflects an ongoing interest in urban landscapes as spaces of perception, where light, memory, and everyday environments converge through painting.
