CONTEMPORARY ART REVIEW
Rembrandt / Caravaggio is the pattern for incredible light, Vermeer for colors, Rubens for vigor and Velazquez for free brushstrokes.
While your pieces highlight the urgent need for renewed reverence for reality, the brushstrokes that condense your visual vocabulary have a very ethereal quality, that in“ Brown Study“ is capable of drawing the viewers into a dreamlike dimension. How do you view the concepts of the real and the imagined playing out within your works?
Once I was told, that I had very rare feature; I can see in my imagination the ready painting before I start to paint. True is, that when I am painting it sometimes goes beyond my control, I can even talk and paint at the same time. However there are moments, that I must concentrate completely, I am very tired afterwards and surprised that I was me who did this piece, it is incomprehensible for me and difficult to explain.
We like the way your works accomplish an insightful investigation of the subconscious sphere. We daresay that your art practice also challenges an inner cultural debate between heritage from the past and traditions that carry on to this day: despite the reminders to traditional figurative approach, your work is marked out with stimulating contemporary sensitiveness. Do you think that there is still a contrast between Tradition and Contemporariness?
