Cologne II Tension and Equilibrium
Contrasting the rigid structures of urban life with organic, fluid lines, Cologne II Tension and Equilibrium features an expansive orange circle that seems to pulse against cool hues of the cityscape, suggesting both tension and equilibrium. Sharply angled buildings meet the curved dome, creating a complex spatial relationship. Subtle wisps of white and teal add texture, conveying movement and the passage of time. This composition reflects on the social dynamics of modern architecture, where an unreal natural world integrates itself into constructed environments. It encourages viewers to explore the evolving relationship between humanity and architecture in contemporary culture.
The logo of “Daniel Portela Contemporary Art” is discretely visible against the backdrop of the buildings, as proof of an original limited-series artwork.

Meet the artist behind
My name is Daniel Portela, an artist born in Mexico City that currently lives between Madrid (Spain) and Cologne (Germany). I’m the younger brother of three brothers and a sister. From a very early age I showed a strong interest in drawing. I love not only painting on canvas with oil, acrylic and watercolors, but also the fascinating tools that technology give us to use creating Art.
For me, Art and love are the most sublime gifts that Universe gave to humans, and I feel very happy everytime that I got inmerse in my creation process and when I share it with people. So, if you like or even love one of my art pieces, or have any question or special request, don’t hesitate to contact me at support@danielportelart.com.
