Dream Away Painting

After finishing minimalistic "Origami" series I felt influential craving for flamboyant colours and patterns. Around that time my friend showed me her new album of Hayo Miyazaki works and it reminded me of my enchantment of his "Spirited Away" film, my astonishment that it's all inspired by primal Japanese art when I visited National Museum in Tokyo; and my own joy of creation being carried away by imagination. Those little ghosts or monsters are perfect inhabitatnts of the nooks of my attic :-) Mixed media (oil + schlagmetal gold& silver + mordant + glossy varnish) on plywood and wooden canvas. Plywood and wood visible on a 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.
