DEJAN PERSPECTIVE Dejan's painting's imaginative vision contains many abstract extraterrestrial forms from our mystical Universe. These impressive artworks complement scientific research. As a result, Dejan has carved out a trademark, a distinctive expression depicting his dreams' ideas. His paintings present a kind of cosmic landscape, which is especially remarkable. They have evocative magic power and emotional richness. The wondrous, enigmatic form on his canvases shows unknown objects that sometimes discard definitions that usually dwell in dreams. So, it was delightfully helpful when his coherent composition provoked viewers' unique expressions. Dejan used specific colors to supplement his vision. His dreams always revealed some mystical movement that viewers could easily recognize. They were leading in unreality, dwelling in the artist's dream world. Notably, a new level in creating digital paintings is making them 3D Sculpting on aluminum, glass, etc. Dejan's sophisticated settings have been supported by his vivid, fresh, hallucinatory, and creative inspiration, culminating in sublime abstractions. Among Dejan's artistic career exhibiting, many art critics have a definite conclusion about his art projects. At the time, the unique dialog came from Venice Biennale judge, Art Historian, and member of AICA, Mr. Bata Lubisic, who wrote: Dejan plays with ideas, searching for a mode of expression that discards definition and is abundant in fascinating enigmas. The artistic power of Dejan Vucelic as a painter is excellent. His art reaches the aesthetics at sight, but there is a second layer of symbolism. What is essential in these works is the superb proficiency in painting matter, the splendid avoidance of narration and illustration, and a distinct visual expression filled with pictorial elements. These paintings could be an introduction to new fairy tales. ARTIST STATEMENT The creative process of the materialization of abstractive vision is inspiring for me. In addition, I am fascinated by many scientific theories, such as a parallel hidden dimension, the possibility of life on planets around dwarf stars, water-vapor plumes from Saturn, quark-gluon plasma, energetic flares, etc. I am creating many artworks from dreamt-away episodes about that phenomenon that brought enormous artistic challenges.
