About The Artwork
The inspiration for this painting came one evening in May 2003 near Bonn, on one of the many trips that Joaquin undertook with his father. Joaquin and his father stayed for a few days at Villa Bellestate in the county of Holzweiler, whose owner is a long-time friend of the family. This area is also known in Germany for its great wine-growing. Joaquin and his father took the opportunity to sample the quality of the regional wines for themselves and enjoyed spending the warm, sunny evenings by the villa's pool, which is interwoven with several separate koi ponds in an elaborate and impressive architectural design. Here they watched the wondrous play of the koi late into the night while drinking chilled white wine and Joaquin's father talked to his son about life... The clear, wonderful memories of the wonderful conversations with his father, the warming rays of the evening sun, the cool white wine and the glittering, natural play of the koi still haunt Joaquin to this day. That is why he created this painting and chose the following title: " ENCHANTED WATERS: Two Golden Koi "

Joaquin De Mondo's art reveals a tension resulting from rational doubt, which for him follows from the inadequacies of modernism and the recognizable inapplicability of conservative views. His doubt is the origin of his striving for clear artistic statements - sometimes overly concrete, sometimes mysteriously abstract - executed with strong colours and evident dynamism in form and lines, but sometimes in a different way: in disciplined geometric compositions. Joaquin De Mondo's active and creative power and his seriousness in dealing with current issues of nature and culture lead to a variety of interesting and meaningful representations and compositions in his oeuvre, which reflect his feelings on a surprising level. His works are captivating analyses of existence and will, his contemplations, ideas and dreams. Joaquin De Mondo works conscientiously and at a remarkable standard. Interesting about his more recent works is the powerful stillness, the use of strong colours, an unusual relief-like structural technique, striking colour transitions, with an astonishing harmonic dynamic, which leads directly to the motto of his ambitions: A primal direct force that communicates itself to the viewer at first glance and holds him captive.
