Additional Artwork Images: Artwork Description: The “Motions” quadriptych is based on Chopin’s Mazurkas, Op. 24. Chopin’s Mazurkas are distinguished by their laconic form, diverse harmonic content, and subtle emotional nuances. For this reason, a small format was chosen for the works. All four parts of the quadriptych are distinguished by their spaciousness, lightness, and clarity…
Additional Artwork Images: Artwork Description: The painting “Lacrimosa” was created after Requiem of W.A.Mozart. It combines elements of traditional and contemporary techniques of painting, images and ideas of “old masters” (Raphael), street art and the bold, independent spirit of contemporary subcultures (Balenciaga). The idea of this painting is to express the contradictory nature of our…
Artwork Description: Lost paradises of modern times turn tension between reality and the imagined into endless journeys of the soul in search of happiness and one’s inner self. My exploration of elusive ideals echo the legends of Atlantis, a legendary place of perfection. The blue flowers and birds are recurring symbols of my art coming…
Artwork Description: Printed and framed in flying black. Limited Edition 3/10 Under winter’s cold whisper, moon reflections beneath passing desires. Among the blind frictions of time, dreams bloom, revealing everything that the dry flow of becoming allowed us to be. Vakim Pirdon’s digital works are normally engravings and can be reproduced on traditional physical supports….
Artwork Description: I have noticed how Christian art become a kind of mimicry. A copy of a copy where so-called “good” art is imitating whatever acceptable form, as if art which comes afterwards is lesser and not meeting a “traditional” standard. I received that rosary when I was a child and have had it for…
Artwork Description: Femmage is about recollection, about the feeling of bodies, youth, and warmth as in the re-collecting the sense of an experience. Sometimes it is not the literal image that reminds us, but a texture, scent, sound, or mood. I manipulate the boundary lines of tint and pigment to elicit the mood of pure…
Artwork Description: This piece is about the everyday reformed in dreams and trying to capture the otherworldliness or strangeness of this world. I took regular objects giving them a sensuous and wonderland sense of proportions, interpreting the martini glasses and lifesavers to bring out a saturated quality—exaggerated lines with colors popping and invading. I gave…
Artwork Description: Ultraviolet is about unadulterated color as the primal basis of image. It is understanding the power of color within the image before experience, before the imagery is re-articulated by the world into a concept or an idea, before it is overlooked or diminished, or given a glance and then set aside. Width: 76…
Artwork Description: I intend the flower to give the double presence of flesh. The vulnerability of flesh with its veins, its textures, and its exhilaration and intimacy. Flesh is protective but also easily wounded. Seduction and desire fill us and leaves us bare, visible, shivering, and open. This work is unabashedly celebrating sex and femininity…
Artwork Description: Empreinte s’organise autour d’une forme verticale centrale, marquée par une ouverture étroite qui s’inscrit comme une présence dans la matière. Les formes arrondies qui l’entourent évoquent un espace intérieur traversé par des tensions. Les superpositions, frottements et transparences révèlent une matière marquée par le geste et le temps. L’œuvre suggère un état d’ambivalence,…
