Whit Goats Print

The picture belongs to a series of 22 pictures that were taken after trip to India in 2016. The journey made a lasting impression on me. When I returned, my travel photos became an inspiration for painting. I brought hand-stamped fabrics with me with the aim of incorporating them as collage elements into my pictures. These materials are produced manually and labor intensively in factories. The hand-carved wooden stamps are individually carved depending on the color - often several stamps are needed for printing on the fabrics. In this picture we see a young man, a goatherd with his goats. The young man wears a tight white shirt that is not typical of that of a shepherds. He holds a long stick on his shoulder. On the left side, the background of the picture is covered with a patterned fabric on which some of the goats are painted. The pattern of the substance partly passes into the body of the animals. This creates a negative form that emphasizes the material and its pattern. The color of the fabric hardly stands out in some places from the colors of the goats, the difference between the painted surface and the glued fabric is only noticeable at second glance. The mood of the picture is cheerful and meditative. The background is calm, with only a few shadows around the animals, creating a spatial effect. The contrast between the real and the painted fabric makes up the tension of the picture. The picture is mounted on stretcher and is ready to hang.The colors are high quality and the surface is treated with UV spray. This prevents color fading.
