About The Artwork

It was inspired by that stage of 2016 Tour De France, during which, after a massive uphill and nervous competition between Froome and Quintana​ (who was unsuccessfully trying to break away), a crash took place in the front rows of break away. It happened because of the misplaced finish line. It was high in the mountains and due to weather conditions, the finish line was moved a bit down. That caused a tight crowd. A motorcycle, that was supposed to clear the way, ran into standing too close spectators and suddenly hit breaks blocking the cyclists. Froome got left without his bike as it was broken. Without further hesitation he started to run to a finish line, that was just around the corner. It reminded me that feeling of chasing geese when you are a kid and you are running for life. Also, I was inspired by that book ‘The Wonderful Adventures of Nils’, that I remembered from childhood.

I have been painting for as long as I can remember. For me, it is a process that results in a still story, that leaves you a broad field for personalization. Mine is a story with very intuitive development. I chose, but not limited, acrylic on canvas as a medium I work with. Every day I practice in delivering content to the viewer. I think I try to stick to realism as this style is the most comprehensible. It is also a means of communication and contact with people by allowing them to relate easier. I hope everyday approaches me to the point when one can feel by looking at the painting: laugh or cry..(I prefer people smiling, though). I admire interconnection of every aspect of human culture and the way each one of them moves the whole in one direction, influencing each other. A particularly long time I spent looking at the painting The Sleeping Gypsy by French Naïve artist Henri Rousseau. The same captivation for me has Pieter Bruegel, Egon Schiele, Andreas Gursky and Elizabeth Peyton. But the most aspiring experience, accept for personal conversations with people I look up to, and who I truly believe shape our identities by sharing their baggage through an attitude, was probably the improvisational cinematographic language of Werner Herzog. In the end of a day it is very simple - try to tell somebody your last night’s dream and not loose their interest.
