ABOUT THE ARTWORK

"Bronze Bear" after "Iron Wolf" is an abstract approach to mask - tool of concealment, artifact, magic object or even weapon, present in all coultures all across space and time. Masks fascinated people in ancient times and still now widely appear in pop-coulture. It not only hides the bearer, giving one new identity, but often gives one "magic" powers or new personality. Piece was comissioned. Painting is mixed media (pencil + schlagmetal + mordant + varnish) on HDF and wooden canvas. HDF is a part of the painting and you can see wood on the side, but object should not be framed - open form and visible structure is a part of design. Small technical flaws are welcome in my works, as matherial perfection I leave to manufacturing. I built canvas myself from the scratch and so it is not perfect and at closer look you can see joints and nail's heads, as well and as uneven surface and sometimes gaps in schlagmetal leaves. It does not disturb the harmony of the whole object however, and I see it as a additional value of my personal touch.

Most of the highly celebrated art is about discovering new or commenting on current pressing matters, but my art is about simple everyday willingness to live. I paint because this gives me purpose and joy – it’s like humming nice song for a hundredth time, even thou there were many covers before; preparing favorite drink for a friend and myself, to enjoy it again in a new glass perhaps; dressing up for no occasion, just to look and feel good; caressing a lover… I wish it was the same for recipients of my art – everyday pleasure in experiencing it. Like a book that you red many times, yet you still reach for it; dish that you always order in that place that is there forever... Repeatable, often classic topics; favorite color palette; small and big things that makes us want to live, even thou world can be such an ugly place. I want my art to make it better - even for a moment, even in a tiny way. I want it to remind myself and others that it's worth to try everyday...
