Dear Mrs Resident Curator. I'd like to apologize for that late response, but because of my work i haven't followed this webpage during this year. Thank you very much for noticing my artwork and for constructive critique. Trails of some tools on the concrtete are taken stright from places of my inspirations - from ruined, abandoned places made by human hand, lost somewhere in the woods. A colour work is an imitation of all the things that nature itself do with that places. Generally - a dualism and a vanishing - are the most interesting subjects for me in this series of paintings.

Curator’s Comment:  

 

These pieces may be easy to overlook against a host of your other active gestural works, but the quiet solidity of the image/structures have a stoic presence.  I particularly like this piece because of the muted hues, which reminds me of lichen growing on concrete.  The greenish swathe of contrasted color in the bottom section is also appealing because it breaks up the massive rectangles, and suggests another fractured compartment within the prominent diptych.  The surface manipulation overall is indicative of erosion or natural degenerative/regenerative processes.  I’m also curious how the piece is presented in actuality, as the designated ground is specified as a (sculptural) table rather than flat plane.  If so, the manipulated topography of a formerly utilitarian object brings other ideas to reason.
