About The Artwork

Auction sale link The painting technique refers to the painting of the old Flemish masters. The picture is painted with the world's best single-pigment, natural oil paints. The picture shows a herbalist, a sage, a beautiful woman as a metaphor for nature, she has herbs in her hair. Herb of Saint John or good herb and was considered a symbol of wisdom, hospitality and love, using the plant, among others, in rituals related to Saint John (midsummer night). In the Middle Ages, the petals of chamomile flowers were collected and sprinkled on feasts to provide interiors with a pleasant fragrance. In the 15th and 16th centuries, chamomile flowers often appeared in religious paintings, symbolizing the fight against evil and divine salvation. A painting inspired by the paintings of Jan van Eyck, (born around 1390 in Maaseik, died on July 9, 1441 in Bruges) - a Dutch painter, a representative of the fifteenth-century Dutch realism. He was the brother of another Dutch painter, Hubert van Eyck. As one of the first European painters of the fifteenth century, he began to use the oil technique in his paintings - not mixing paints on the palette, but applying glazes. The biographer of Italian painters, Giorgio Vasari, attributed the invention of oil painting to the van Eyck brothers in the mid-16th century.

In my work, I am interested in the relationship between social roles and intimate human needs. Cultural gender, age, religion, origin, family or social structure, and geopolitical situation entail specific expectations that a person faces. There is a need to make decisions or passivity. I believe that my paintings touch on this moment of internal uncertainty and indeterminacy, I show sympathy with confusion and foreboding, uncertainty and certainty, shame and boldness. Duality accompanies me constantly, and leaving cultural roles gives me the opportunity to look at the consequences.
