This series is a major work of recent art.

After experimenting with the free technique of applying acrylic paints on paper and exploring its possibilities in a liquid state, I waited to see where this journey would take me...

Together with the earthy palette of 4 colors, the emphasis on texture and underdrawing with natural charcoal (from the stove), I understood that I was depicting essences, images from my childhood that stuck in my consciousness/unconsciousness.

Experiences from raw nature, wet clay, fire and stove are visually transformed into this very series of paintings.

It is also a reference to the "primitive" way of life of our ancestors. "Primitive" is a question mark, perhaps it is precisely this close relationship with nature that we "civilized" people lack today...

​

This is back to the roots for me... 

And what does "back to the roots" mean to you?
