About The Artwork
Black backround ( matte- Reinhardt like colour) / black oil paint Meaning of Black Rose It is believed that black rose exists in Tibet but it has not been verified until now. According to the Language of Flowers or floriography in the 19th Century, a black rose implies hatred, death, and despair. It can also signify rebirth or farewell for good, in certain situations. Since a true black rose is impossible to find in nature, it emphasizes on utmost devotion and exclusivity in a relationship. One can also see endless mentions of black rose in Gothic literature. Peter Carey’s Fragrance of Roses discusses in detail about the symbolism of black roses. Black Rose Meaning in Romance Black roses represent tragic romance. A black rose doesn’t stand for happiness, but the sadness, a relationship would bring along. Black Rose Meaning in Tarot Cards A fan theory on the Internet also suggests that in Tarotology, a black rose stands for everything opposite of a white rose. It represents revenge, ugliness, immorality, disrespect and a state of despair. Just to let you know, tarot cards don’t feature black rose at all.

Black Rose in Video Games In the video game, Fable, black rose represents the evil love between two anti-heroes. Black roses represent deep romance and ferocious beauty in the Elder Scrolls universe.

All my paintings have in common a mental reality, not a physical one. I am against painting that is based only on observation and theory, painting as if done by robot, painting that has the safety net of theories in painting. I want to explain what and how I paint, I will define it as a relationship between a mode of observation (internal and external) and a way of expressing it. This is the answer for which some works need to express the idea of figurative, others go to abstract or symbols and each one needs a different way to be realized. I do not paint a landscape, idea, theme, in an established pictorial way, I do not follow the theories and clearly established criteria. Depending on the psychological state of what I want to express, then I use one of many modes of expression in painting. In painting you can use color and size not only according to the physical reality, but also according to the mental reality. I am convinced that everyone had the surprise to find and find in places that have a different outline and other physical and emotional dimensions. After a while, longer or shorter, the fountain from which the water once drank changed its size. I do not paint with the same emotion, but under an emotional complex, this is why some works are intuitive, others are strongly rationalized. In each paper I had to tolerate the uncertainty, not knowing where the idea goes, to change the way the subject is played. There were quick endings, but there were also roads that closed and I had to resume and investigate what I want and I like the search. I tried to formulate what happens when I stand in front of a canvas, without exposing all the "cognitive maneuvers", the interpretation is left to those who regard, the benefit is both. This is what those who have already started digesting my paintings from the three years since I woke up in painting know this. So let's see outside what is not foreign to us inside!
