Artists Describing Their Art:
Sebastian Novaky - Striving for a sense of harmony, even in the most uncertain of circumstances, inspires me to make sculpture. I aim to stimulate emotions, feelings and the imagination. I want to create an atmosphere conducive to achieving a sense of well-being, happiness and joy. My work is figurative but it is meant to be metaphorical, not simply representational. In attempting to achieve a spiritual balance in my life and work, I look for alternatives to the self-absorption, materialism and cynicism that often seem prevalent in society. I try to focus on the metaphysical rather than the evidence of the physical world. My sculpture is somewhat autobiographical. I left a successful financial career to pursue the creation of art when I became disillusioned with the purposelessness of accumulation. I discovered that thought, when acted upon, is transformative and very powerful. In my search for equilibrium in precarious situations be they emotional or economical, a moment of significant radical insight, brought about - not by a modification in material circumstances - but by a simple change in thought and the way those circumstances were perceived, revolutionized my life. I think of art as a form of language in which there are two simultaneous ...
Narges Soleimanzadeh - Focusing on day by day life events as I really live among them is important, matters to me and impresses me. I showcase an emotional and mental reaction toward them. In my artworks, events, different incidents and various positions are combined together and have created a unique unity, without losing their own characteristics. My painting subjects contain ordinary and routine life elements that are unremarkable so that their entrance to the art world seems unbelievable. My attention is toward things that are there and not things that must be there. Characters and people, animals and sometimes consumer banal objects, look like a kind of quest, searching among objects that are maintaining their personality, while in an artistic unity, inside structure and form, their specific performance appears. In my paintings all spontaneous and irregular elements are mixed up to form feelings and sometimes by transforming signs and achieving an emotional and personal form, make vast changes in those signs. Using saturated colours carries a modern understanding and it helps to achieve a suspended position in different 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional spaces. My artworks are basically emotional and abstract with a sense of suspension. Colours are often chosen non-hybrid and ...
Chongwu Ao - I, ChongWu AO artist name is Zhongwua>>2a3/4, live in Melbourne, Australia, am an independent contemporary freelance painting Asian artist. I use ink painting on the rice paper and use an abstract approach to depict the feelings and thinking of beauty. My painting shows Asian cultural elements and humanistic spirit and is magnificent, open, natural, and has no limit. Freedom your true feelings is the portrayal of my work. Traditional art is rational, abstract art is irrational. Abstract art pursues the sense of visual pleasure, and pure visual pleasure is the essence of art. Abstract aesthetic is the instinct of human nature, like music and food it is the gift of human freedom. True temperament, true abstraction and figurative art. Let the viewers get free imagination in their appreciation, soar in the space of free imagination... Instagram art_aocwartistwork Twitter ao_work ...
Mauricio Aybar - I am a self-taught artist based on life experiences and practical working. Shortly after beginning my studies in art, I became interested in mosaic and decided to go to several countries - looking to soak up different cultures and techniques including notably a significant period of time in Barcelona, home to Gaudi and other modern mosaic artists, where I acquired much of my technique and spirit as an artist. Art is believing and throwing you into the experience like a child playing. Even though I take my artistic work very seriously, I still have a lot of fun while IaEURtmm creating. For me, the mosaic is a way to create an engaging visual environment through the line, colour and form and also use it as an opportunity to develop my own unique artistic voice. It would not be unreasonable to suggest that any meaning or concept comes second, the quality of the actually work is what is paramount. My artworks are often about contact with architecture and basic living elements and directly responds to the surrounding environment and uses everyday experiences. ...
