ABOUT THE ARTWORK
This painting is inspired by a dream. In the dream I saw a silhouette in front of the mirror - the silhouette was not material, but as if created only by energy. There was nothing scary about this situation. I went next to the silhouette and stood in front of the mirror. When I looked in the mirror I saw that only I had a reflection and the silhouette did not. Then a voice said from somewhere: "That, what is, has no reflection in the mirror." and I woke up. My first attempt to draw this dream was too literal and unsuccessful. With this attempt, I tried to emphasize more on the feeling of the dream. I chose an "protagonist" to "play" the situation. This time I emphasized more on the metaphorical meaning of this sentence. We are used to looking in the mirror and seeing the surface of our body. When we think more about our personality and the core of our being, it is as if it is surrounded by many faces and layers. Like the bulb - it has many layers and leaves.

My painting style is driven by emotions and various ideas. I extract philosophical ideas from books and seek to transfer emotions from music on the canvas as accurately as possible. I also play the piano and naturally, music in general is very important to me. I find these two branches of art – painting and music – very similar. The technique that I’m using is greatly influenced by the classical examples – I’m following exact stages whereas I’m working with multiple layers. For several years I was painting with oil paint. Then I decided to try with acrylics - I combine them with structure pasts, vanish or pigments, in order to achieve different effects. The experiment is crucially important to me and takes a central part – as part of the work process but also as a starting point of communicating with the viewer through his intuitive searches.
