"In dictum I" Painting

Art can never be pre-conceived. It’s not the artist alone, who defines what his art means, he defines form and colour, but he only partially defines the effect on the viewer. Yet, the effect is the essence - not purpose - of everything artistic. Art is never in a vacuum, it flows and is always (whether intentionally or unintentionally) "transcendent", between the worlds, between the senses, between the people. A bridge. And a bridge is committed to both sides. My art flows from me, it’s a piece of myself, it’s a mediator and an outlet. But for me, it's not really tangible on the whole. I paint on canvas, paper, cardboard, using mainly acrylic, pastels, gouache, ink and spray paint. The form is little controlled and often in motion, unfinished. One could say that I follow the impulse and file it out (though not always). Some pictures emerge in seconds, but many become companions over months and years, not a few I paint over, again and again. The artist depicts - but he also forms ... I would say I move in the field of tension between personal authenticity, superior reality and the search of my role in this game.
