Inspired by Hiƫronymus Bosch's masterpiece, "Garden of Earthly Delights," this painting seeks to capture the essence of humanity's journey through time. Bosch's work is renowned for its surreal landscapes, strange creatures, and representations of humanity's shortcomings. In this piece, the artist seeks to create a work that stands between time periods and is not tied to a specific era. The painting draws on the original work's themes of paradise, temptation, and the fall, while adding a contemporary twist. The overall effect is one of beauty and intrigue, as the viewer is transported through time and space to contemplate both the beauty and the darker aspects of the human experience. As the artist captures in this painting, the phrase "it turns" represents the cyclical nature of time and the idea that what goes around comes around. This work serves as a reminder to stay ever-vigilant and be mindful of the consequences of our actions, both good and bad.

Artist Statement Olga Mun My current work uses abstraction to explore the boundaries between the historical reference to art and this living history, trying to name and vocalise this conflicting space in which we now live. References to the environment, art and human history take centre stage in the large, vibrant paintings. With a free, expressive drawing style layered with many different images, mixing figurative and absorbing elements, working largely intuitively. I use a lot of images taken from photographs, repurposed and reconstructed according to my personal vision. Often the images oscillate between figuration and abstraction. The work is complex and multi-layered. Through deconstruction and degradation, I find their equivalents both in imagery and in the application and removal of paint from the canvas. Systematic marking and spontaneity find equal grounds, links are not a secret, but a condition of work. Irreverence and crushing absurdity battle among the parables of human and natural history. The crisis of our own development is cultural, political and ecological - an encounter with it in my current work. Like social systems of invention and destruction, each painting is created using additive marking and restorative techniques such as scraping, painting, or solvent application. I embrace spontaneity and use the physical process to reflect on the nature of paint. This physicality breathes life into the pictorial space and helps the viewer connect with cultural objects, our relationship with the environment, and our preoccupation with idealised representations of the world.
