"My art is freedom and travels in the interpenetrating earthly and cosmic worlds from the borderland of dream and java. Devoid of realism , inner visions aimed at detaching the viewer from everyday life to take him into a world of colorful , surrealistic fantasy."
MISCELLANEOUS SURREALISM- is a combination of different worlds, earth and cosmos from the borderland of dream and java, devoid of realism , inner visions aimed at taking the viewer on colorful journeys to detach him from the real world and make him reflect and spiritually inspired. The conscious use of symbols through the prism of oriental philosophy creates a clear message with mystical tinges showing human desires, emotions and references to higher forms and forces of life. The essence of these messages is a magical perception of the world, in which the limitations of human perception disappear and transcend the limits of reality. The cognitive path to these worlds is an inner journey into oneself, through which one can reach the source of creative creativity, inspiration and intuition, and these cognitions and experiences create visions, which are then transformed and rendered on canvas in the form of sensual, unreal creations of the imagination.
