Vit Kodousek

I was born in communist Czechoslovakia (1968). My early life was influenced by Prague's cubist, art deco, and art nouveau architecture, and later by my active participation in the Velvet Revolution of 1989.

In my work I like to explore the profound interplay between abstract and defined forms, reflecting a journey shaped by both historical upheaval and a quest for inner peace. After a period away from art, I returned to painting with a mature perspective, now living and working in Dubai and Osaka.

My distinctive style is characterized by stark contrasts—deep blacks, fiery reds, and luminous whites—where structured shapes meet explosive gestures.

I am also the innovator of "motion abstraction," a digital art form where subtle, almost imperceptible movements create ever-changing, meditative experiences.

Deeply resonating with Japanese philosophies like Ichigo Ichie (the uniqueness of each moment), Ma and Ikigai (life's purpose), my art invites viewers to find stillness, joy, and inner peace amidst life's chaos.

My work has been exhibited internationally in cities including Dubai, Abu Dhabi, New York, Los Angeles, and Osaka, offering a universal invitation to presence and contemplation.

Through my art, I create quiet spaces ...
