About The Artwork

The work on doctoral art project The philosophy of existentialism in an engaged graphic form – an exhibition of lithographs consists of analysis and understanding of the visual and verbal language used by existentialist artists and writers, which is based on the existence and universality of the language of unconscious. The work tries to show the versatility and durability of language, used by existentialist artists and writers as the basis for analysis of philosophical postulates, by following the way of implementing existentialist ideas into literary-philosophical and art forms. I tried to represente the process of human (de)fragmentation in areas of their work and activities by considering ideological-political, existential and social issues, that had a decisive influence on the literary and artistic engagement, as well as the formation of the personal attitudes of artists and writers in the first half of the twentieth century. The artistic part of the project, conceived as a visual and theoretical research, is a series of prints - lithographs grouped into two sections: the prints of monumental and large format prints. The visualisation of existentialist language in graphic art form is achieved through formal elements of works, the choice of themes and motives. Works, created as the result of research of graphic media limits and possibilities, interdisciplinary approach to the problem and implementation of knowledge and methods of different disciplines, are linked into a unique drama-visual-aesthetic performance. The drawing process itself is a part of the work concept: a visual metaphor which suggests ideological orientation of the entire project. Duality in the drawing construction (by adding or subtracting the color) indicates the topic and key concepts of the work: utilization, loneliness, vulnerability, fear. The metaphorically identification with a fingerprint, as an archetype of human presence, is symbolically opposed to the idea of alienation and disintegration of society and its individuals. The visual form of works, the choice of the motiv and drawing procedure complete the expression which embodies the proposed hypotheses. The main motive is generalised and transformed into a channel for the introduction of physiological stimulus, while the formal elements of the work are selected as highly suggestive and associative, clearly readable signals and as such indicate that there is unity and the universality of the existential language.
