Artist Statement:
As I traveled, I kissed
good-bye pieces of myself in
places I visited. But I took
as much as I gave and
sometimes even more: inhaling
the smell of a wet July
morning on the Austrian-Slovak
border; a light transparent
blue grey smell, listening to
the falling rain on the river
at night in my hometown. That
heavy sound carried itself to
my canvas as a thick impasto
and drips of deep Pthalo blue
mixed with Burnt Umber.
Watching the sunset on the
Nile River in Luxor; vivid yet
unreachable, the colors were
emitting an endless charm on a
warm November evening.
I can’t recall the specific
names of most places, I can
vaguely remember the country
or the city but I can clearly
see the time of day,
temperature and smell of air
and feel the butterflies in my
chest as I fell in love with
the whole world in their
presence.
As I depict these memories, I
strive to be loyal to all my
senses so my paintings would
be simply a sincere
translation of what my memory
managed to carry as my eyes
were carried away. ...
