The Living Dead Painting

The painting was created under the strong influence of neoexpressionist ideas, whose interest in intese, subjective experience expressed in an appropriate artistic language respresents a fertile ground for creative thinking. The zombie portrait is painted in a tense process between gestural abstraction and figuration, control and chance. Thematically speaking, the painting is constant reminder of the memento mori, the death that must befall everyone, both individuals and society. The portrait belongs to the world of imagination, the world of eternity, where truth and illusion, experience and imagination, the real and the unreal world have no boundaries. Close to the grotesque and surreal, the artist returns to painting the mythical, magical, otherworldly. He uses the picture to get rid of all the negative energy, ghosts that haunt or frighten him, and in the end arouses in the viewer curiosity, an experience of fear, a feeling of insecurity and chills.
