Bohdan (Bob) Vandiak

I believe that art reflects an image of our existence. My work is an attempt to examine this image. I seek to explore the subconscious as it exists in human behavior. Exploring our actions, words and deeds can reveal secret truths. These truths originate in the soul and mind, and can be discovered in our behavior in present day society. Recognizing what comes from the depth of our soul is essential to understanding our existence.
