This painting was done by Rondolfo Abularach a native Guatemalan born in 1933. This is just one of a few paintings in a particular collection by Abularach in which the theme is eyes. The painter chose to do this painting in black and white rather than color. The black and white makes this painting seem dull and faded unlike if it were in color. In some of his other pieces in the collection he includes the eyelid or eyelashes but in this specific piece he chooses to include nothing but the eyeball itself. Is he saying we must keep our eyes open for something? The eye is open very widely and it looks like it is zoned in on one specific item. The painter seems like he wants everyone to open their eyes to some cause or problem in society. Something that people may be overlooking or maybe turning a bling eye to.
