FREE FLOW TRIPTYCH Painting

ARTIST STATEMENT AND BIO Creating art it’s my purpose of contributing to make the world a little better every day, surrounding ourselves with beauty that makes us feel good. The nature is nutrition to my work. Especially the horizon line of the sea, the mountains, trees, wood, snow and sun. All these elements are essential for me and they are life itself, I believe in sustainability as a way of life and I also apply it to my work as much as it’s possible. But the external beauty of nature is visible to everyone, I’m not interested to represent reality with painting. Now I’m interested on inner sight and I’m focus to express the beauty of human inner nature. Share this with the observer and establish an open dialogue with him and his emotions at the same time. This is the purpose of ‘Inner horizons’ series. On this artworks I bring light to the darkness creating spaces of light recorded in our emotional memories. I look for the light that makes visible the horizon line of our inner emotional landscapes. Finally, gold paint over is the expression of the sublime and spiritual experience. The canvas for this purpose is made by order specially for me. I created it based on my experience on textile design, with organic cotton and yarn dyed with Indigo pigment. Then I paint in negative with acid medium taking away Indigo pigment from canvas. This creates an hyper effect of depth because all white appears from yarn.
