Artist Statement for Ivan Vesely
|
|
|
Creativity has been and continues to be a saving grace in my life. Through my creativity I understand things that cannot be explained by a word, a look, a touch, or a taste. There are so many things that happen in this life that pass us by and we never even know they were there. Painting lets me slow down enough to have a glimpse of these things. I explore depths of my soul that I was not aware existed. Some are beautiful. Some are heartbreaking. But coming to understand them is a blessing. It has brought peace and perception at times when I thought there was none.
We all have a part in us that yearns. My yearning is to be whole, to be fulfilled. I want to be like a glass that is not half full, nor half empty, but that has plenty to share. I want to have enough to quench my own thirst and the thirst of others.
Whether I will ever feel completely whole remains to be seen. You are the people who are seeing. An artist, to me, is someone who allows others to see the process and progress of his, or her own life. He, or she, lays spiritually and emotionally naked on a canvas and rises past the fear that some find it attractive, while others may find it repulsive. Honesty is allowing yourself to be seen, hiding nothing . So I lay myself out in my work, naked, in front of you, hoping to connect, or intersect with your life, desiring that you will find peace, and a new perspective for yourself.
