Marta Ellie (1985) - Magritte's Breakfast 'XL'

"Magritte's Breakfast"
This whimsical yet enigmatic painting invites viewers into a surreal seaside tableau. At its heart stands a striking black-and-white cat, its piercing eyes seemingly guarding a curious spread of dishes featuring fish and peculiar delicacies. The muted tones of the sandy shore and calm sea contrast with the vivid details of the food, evoking both serenity and mystery. Birds flutter in the background, while abstract architectural and natural elements add a dreamlike quality to the scene. This piece playfully explores themes of companionship, curiosity, and the juxtaposition of the ordinary with the fantastical, leaving viewers with a sense of wonder and amusement.

I’m Marta Ellie, and my work is deeply inspired by the organic rhythms of nature, the strength of feminism, and the evolving structures of social narratives. With over 20 years of experience in the art world, I’ve cultivated a practice that bridges the traditional and contemporary—merging time-honored techniques with modern themes and technology. My creative process involves mixed media, including acrylics, oils, collages, and juxtaposed photography. These elements often come to life through digital manipulation and, at times, AI, adding depth and interaction to each piece.

This collection features limited edition prints based on my original works. I personally oversee the giclée printing process on premium canvas, ensuring that each print maintains the authenticity and vibrant detail of the original creation.

My work engages viewers in a reflective experience, blending art with storytelling.
