The solo exhibition of artist Alexander Grahovsky (Alejandro Pastor, Alicante, 1980): The Kiss That Changed Everything invites us to enter an oneiric and symbolic universe, a series of scenes that, much like in the famous Garden of Earthly Delights by Hieronymus Bosch, unfold across a pictorial space saturated with life, drama, and mystery. Like ancient ecclesiastical altarpieces - think of the majestic Ghent Altarpiece by the Van Eyck brothers - each painting seems a window into a fragmented story where reality and myth blend and blur.

The characters and symbols inhabiting these paintings are imbued with a profound emotional weight, and their actions, though seemingly mundane, reflect universal themes of love, desire, redemption, and sacrifice.

The exhibition's narrative is non-linear. The paintings layer apparently unrelated scenes upon a single surface, as if each work were a palimpsest of interwoven stories, forming a tapestry of hidden meanings. This multiplicity of scenes, with its recurring characters - the black cat, the devil, the ghost, death, and those figures who seem to worship or dance in ecstasy - speaks to a world where time is cyclical and actions repeat themselves, always with slight variations that alter the destinies of the protagonists.
