About The Artwork
This painting received and honorific diploma at Rotterdam Art Fair, September 2016 The painting I called Blind dreamers talks about the futility of dreaming to a higher human condition, while still blinded by the attachments of our path through the world. The scenery is situated on top of the clouds, at the time of dusk, when sun sets beyond the them, illuminating the horizon like a lantern behind a shoji wall. The scene depicts imaginary characters following a trail of suspended stones, laying on top of the clouds. Some of these characters are blindfolded, with broken, corroded wings, unable to fly, grounded by their condition. The central character is different, having an altered appearance, not quite human, not totally un-human nonetheless, still holding onto his mobility and having a heart and a brain, with a certain degree of connectivity. This metaphoric distance between the heart and the brain is not too long, but certainly not the shortest one either, as a reminiscent Buddhist thought was suggesting as the path for an enlightened being. All these characters are following one another on this trail, not especially lucidly or organized, but simply caught in the gravity of their path, which is actually the force of attraction of their own attachments to the world. They walk this path heavily and their moves are somehow frozen in time, as if they were asleep, dreaming their human condition as their ultimate reality. At the upper level of the painting, protruding between the clouds, an eye, opened, with the eyelashes symbolically illustrated as teeth, replacing the eyelids, an account on the un-obviousness of the truth; the sight of truth must be brutally stripped off the world of appearance, as it does not reveal itself willingly.

My artist name is SORiaN. My art is called SORiaN ArT....An art about courage and sincerity. I have named my painting method philosophical surrealism. As a painter, my focus is into the abstract, the conceptual, the surreal. Archetypes, ideas, metaphors of this world and the vastness of the soul are the seeds and the pillars of the stories that I am telling in my paintings. They demand the participation of the observer, to dive inside them, to embrace them in order to eyewitness this emerging new world. As a poet, the philosophy is my nourishing ground. I write philosophical poetry to illuminate our darkest and dearest of nights, the night of life with the candor of the liberated seeker, grasping at every slice of light and life, until the day of our awakening. My poems are about what seems to be in our sight, but mostly hides at the edge of our eye, they are about the truth in our un-admitted lies and the freedom we silently crave for in the shadow of our defeats. They are about the presence, about the now and here in everything and the endurance to walk this path. The merge of these two worlds gives birth to a new dimension, where the depth, tension and sharpness of un-imprisoned thought are igniting the worldly egos, the selves and the gods into new kind of awareness and perception. My art is the guiding path into this higher and more, it is the living into the state of getting closer to the finality of our questions, it is the act of not walking away and turning the back to our battles, our turmoil and our dreams. My art has the power to bring you back to life. You are all invited to fully participate into this new realization of our cosmos. My background in art and philosophy gives to this attempt a distinctive perspective. Through my paintings and my poems I will be your guide in this new world. Look again at this world through my art like through a magical crystal and find a new connection with your own intimacy, your prejudices, your shame and guilt, your safe zones and your dark demons lurking behind our precious convenience. Thank you! SORiaN
