Description
The painting depicts a sense of achievement, and the feeling of being on top of the world.My paintings explore elemental imaginary landscapes, which look like water, earth or sky. I use conte`, oil and other elements as mediums & experiment with supports as well as with medium. The possibilities of support/surface fascinate me.With support/ surface & mediums trying to push reality to the other side where the “real” is still recognizable, but start becoming partially SURREAL. I want to see how far I can push both the real and the surreal at the same time, into one another, building that tension until they are just one and the same.
The protagonists in my paintings are a wooden horse, rooted boat, giant wheel, burnt dart, large wings, birds, nature and shadow.However, they exist as a reason to push paint around. The WOODEN HORSE, in my paintings, shown in humdrum settings, at times of different conditions surrounding. It’s the monotony of the protagonist’s existence against the extraordinary circumstances. it finds itself in, that provides ; somewhat mysterious attitude. Visually, my painting has to have a quality to highlight the feelings the character is experiencing.
