Artist Statement
The subject of my painting is unreal, impressionistic landscapes. I base my works on glazes. The most important thing for me is the play of lights and colors. I try to include in my paintings the lights and shadows of emotions, thus looking for transcendence.
Transcendence has many definitions, but they all refer to something that we cannot sense with our senses. The concept of transcendence, treated as a way of emotional perception of the world on its spiritual surface, has become a tool for me to present my way of looking at the world.
I use color spots to show the viewer what is intangible and elusive and introduce the viewer to the world where he will be able to find a part of himself.
