Subconsciousness Painting

Oil on canvas, 120 x 100 cm Date of creation: 2012 Series of paintings: Subconsciousness The series of paintings titled “Subconsciousness” is a try of describing deep layers of a psyche. A complicated, multilayer structure of our psyche is made of a large number of elements like: innate preferences, variety types of external stimuli, an experience, emotions, an influence of environment etc. When time is passing, this structure constantly, anew becomes distorted and overbuilt. I feature a brief moment of a confrontation between our consciousness and something that until now has been sleeping, misty and that we haven’t realized it’s been existed. I describe a part of the ego, which is revealing under the influence of a specific moment or situation. Till that time, the fragment of our psyche makes a mystery for us and the moment of its unraveling not infrequently elicits mixed feelings: worrying, satisfaction, surprise or even a lack of acceptance.
