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 ?
