About The Artwork

The painting image Light and Ladder (I) is diptych consists of two three-dimensional forms made of pine wood and a three-dimensional object of the Ladder. The frontal parts of the painting are treated with minimal differences in white color, and the lateral parts of both objects are painted in intense red. The viewer sees primarily the reflection of these chromatic shades of red in the area of the wall. The most intense red color, however, occurs in the space between the two wooden objects when two intense reflections of red color merge into the image of a thin vertical rectangle. The formation of intangible radiation of paint (similar to stained glass) is complemented by the vertical formation of a ladder, which was formed from a single piece of metal wire. In daylight conditions, the intensity and shape of color reflections change. Just as the shadow changes when the sundial is watched and the display of time depends on the position of the sun, so the red lights and red shadows reflections are perceived to viewer. This creates the immaterial presence of colored light. In this way, the painter's image offers the viewer various perceptions created by light and color in order to trigger spiritual sense and adequate meaning in the viewer. Painting compositions would come to life to the maximum in a room with a lot of daylight, which is intended for contemplation.

Oto Rimele is a painter, visual artist and author of visual spatial settings. He expresses himself with pure form and colour. Currently, he is Full Professor for drawing and painting at the University of Maribor, Slovenia. In 2004 he received the Prešeren Fund Award, the highest recognition for achievements in the field of art in the Republic of Slovenia. As regards construction, his images are created is such a way as to enable radiation of colour light. The images are accurately placed into the space of the exposition area and achieve the creation of non-material colour communication: his images-objects enable the light of the space to pass into the light of the image, the silence and the inner sound of the image. Rimele strives to achieve such a state of the visual image that will establish, in the interaction with the spectator and the space, the state of wholeness: the artistic image is here in order for the spectator to be able to become aware of himself again and enter the dimension of his non-materiality. His work could be described as “sacral minimalism” and corresponds, as regards the content, to the European spiritual tradition and contemporary authors such as Anish Kapoor, James Turell, Bill Viola, Arvo Pärt. Additional information on the author and his work in English can be found at the website www.otorimele.com.
