About The Artwork

In ancient Greek religion, Ananke (from ἀνάγκη, "force, constraint, necessity") is the personification of inevitability, compulsion and necessity. She is customarily depicted as holding a spindle. One of the Greek primordial deities, the births of Ananke and her brother, Chronos were thought to mark the division between the eon of Chaos and the beginning of the cosmos. Ananke is considered the most powerful dictator of fate and circumstance; mortals as well as gods respected her power and paid her homage. Sometimes considered the mother of the Fates, she is thought to be the only being to influence their decisions. The goddesses Ananke and Bia (meaning force, violence or violent haste) were worshiped together. Ananke is also frequently identified or associated with Aphrodite, especially especially Aphrodite Ourania, the representation of abstract celestial love; the two were considered to be related, as relatively unanthropomorphised powers that dictated the course of life.

In an age of technological innovation, when the competitive flux of production has taken the place of the physical expression of one's inner universe and imaginary, and after it's obituary has been declared innumerous times over the last 150 years, painting presents itself as an act of resistance. A melancholic resistance that mirrors several times and spaces, between past and present, yet mostly, the extent of an utopian time and space: the inner time and space of its author. What room is there in the world for mystery? What language is there for a logic and wisdom that is not binary? Can we go beyond the argument? What other relationship can you have with the world besides dominance? Listening to the truth of being is the silent response to a being's calling. This silent response is found in painting.
