Vlastimil Jílek

I LOVE RENDERING THE INVISIBLE TO MAKE IT VISIBLE. Why? Just for to spend bonne heure behind the mirrors, doubting familiar and conventional sense of the reality while a single second of the present becomes a little infinity. Playing on the edgeways to get close and to understand the comlexicity of all dimensions of the reality. Open and explore the way, where the invisible dwell with the visible. The most exciting days for me often begin with the search for austere beauty of some sly remark, some subtle inunuendo - there are buried images, ideas, fancies, moods, whims and portens of such calibre and combination that they can only be likened, in their effect, to their rare and beauty. One single word or picture, which we can also pass over unperturbed, may prove to be veritable gold mine.

" Vlastimil Jilek is a Berlin and Prague based artist. Classically trained in traditional oil landscape painting style. Having studied in Prague and Berlin, Jilek found inspiration in city culture. His principal desire is to know more about the way in which the written form is expressed in pictures and objects. Jilek has adopted the journey of spontaneous and in some way abstract style, which involves the informal movement and creativity. His Cognitive artwork takes shape through collage, drawings and paintings which are based on classical techniques, but that simultaneously break the rules to create an alternative idiom through his own subjective expression to work in a more free-form improvisational style. Researching culture, art history, philosophy, storytelling have always been a constant influence to Jilek. His works successfully communicates a rich historical narrative, as told by the unique way he frames the architecture of a particular space."
