# Little Shark Painting

Gesture plays the key role in Andrew Lichota’s art. The energy frozen in his ‘impastos’ gives impetus to spots colliding in oblique directions, vertical and horizontal flows of rubbed out streaks, and the disturbed rhythms of brush or spatula strokes changing direction. Spaces are intricate but highly integrated, containing light, shadow and colour, concealing what is most hidden – the nucleus of vision. In the visions of Andrew Lichota we do not find any sign of the horizon, or any trace of topographic descriptiveness. But we feel a connection between the initiating sensation and the end result of the form-creating process. It's as though the painter has abstracted out of the landscape the elements of earth, rocks, water, air and heat, as well as cold, dryness and moisture, colours, lights and shadows, and then like an alchemist, has given them the transmutation treatment. And in this new form he has preserved, somewhere on at the quantum level, the original information. We read it, almost at a subliminal leve. The painting exhibited in the gallery Archetura in Krakow 2016 Published in the album of the exhibition.
