além do que se vê (beyond what is seen) is a symbolist painting by Brazilian artist Thales Pomb. A reclining human figure dissolves into the form of a red horse, blurring the line between body and beast. The work evokes interior vision, emotional territory, and quiet metamorphosis. Pomb’s use of earthy tones and minimal definition encourages poetic reading rather than literal interpretation, inviting viewers into a liminal space between animal, human, and landscape.
