Collages / Evolution I. / 2017

A return to a series of linear paintings from 2014 in the form of collages. The theme of the painting that is hidden behind the image follows the points and is now formed by cuts. These are literal cuts and also die-cutting that projects images into the plans. Instead of brushes, there are knives and scissors, and instead of paints, the pages of fashion magazines.

The Points / No. 6-8 / White / 2017

Expression of distance by means of using points. Distances between each other, as well as from the surface of the canvas, which catches them like a fine sieve.

Another piece of this series is a large white painting. The points on it are made of wax, so they are darker at one angle of light and brighter at another – usually according to the position which the viewer occupies in relation to the canvas. The viewer thus becomes the physical creator of the image, only thanks to the light, position and point of view.
