The INSIDE / OUTSIDE series is a showcase of events which have occurred in recent times, as
well as an insight of our mind which produced inner reactions in all of us. These works also reveal the
level of importance of a certain topic or concept to me, as an artist.
Each work is related to recent events or chosen from among those on which they left the greatest
impression.
The monochromy and expressive brush
strokes are chosen to create dramatic scenes and to emphasize the impact that these topics have on our
lives.
Rise of ignorance depicts recent events, reflecting the surge of misinformation on social media, the spread of conspiracy theories, or the erosion of public trust in scientific facts during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond, highlighting the societal consequences of ignoring expertise and factual information.
The opression and control in societies are becoming stronger.
The voice and will of the
individual disappear in the embrace of institutions and "public opinion" produced by the mainstream media.
We live in a constant state of uncertainty - crises, wars, epidemics...
Our minds slowly enter a vicious circle, dealing with the same topics over and over again.
We are
entering a state of internal emigration without even realizing it.
Polarizations in society simplify things for those whose brains are flooded with
information they are unable to verify.
The world becomes black and white, shades disappear.
The dominance of evil shows the dark times to come.
Human greed and unprecedented
destruction lead to two outcomes:
Our destruction or the Great Reset - you choose...

The WHISPERS OF INSIGHT series offers a captivating exploration of surreal landscapes where
storm clouds
envelop scenes charged with emotional intensity, serving as a metaphorical and visual backdrop to areas of
self-discovery and intellectual exploration.
Elements of nature and humanity are intricately intertwined in the paintings, capturing the essence
of
philosophical dialogue and shared wisdom. Stormy clouds, symbolizing the complexity of thoughts and
emotions, set the scene for a visual narrative that unfolds through central, multiply intertwined human
figures.
The central figures, which are intertwined with each other, symbolize the internal dialogue that is
part of this exploration - a complex conversation with one's own thoughts, emotions, and identity.
Through this series, I seek to present a visual dialogue that encourages reflection on the
beauty and
complexity of the process of self-discovery.
We stumble under the burden of what we should be, or rather, what has been imposed on us through society and
our life experiences. We are not even aware of the weight of our own importance, emotions and thoughts that
we are used to, adding more weight to our backs all our lives.
The moment when our journey begins is when we
step from the state we are used to into the fog, into the unknown.
Here we become aware that our emotions and thoughts are entangled in an inextricable assembly - the middle
of the picture We rely on the opinions and customs of others - the heads at the bottom of the picture.
The moment of brightness, a moment of enlightenment, illumination is inevitable, once the
path (process) is started - it is a bright blue sky in contrast to the dark and heavy sky that is a symbol
of the state in the past.
A life-changing moment - light enters into it - a symbol of the inner divine being, until now jealously
hidden within the intricate ego - our personality.
A moment of euphoria and knowledge about the
connection
of everything that exists. The personality that was rigid and static in the past - the figure
below - is not
destroyed, but reduced to a harmonious measure (size) in relation to the previous image (Tangled) where it
occupies the central place.
By accepting ourselves with all the good and bad sides, we realize that the only thing that matters is that
we exist and that's exactly the way we were created.
When all the elements that make us human are
harmonized and activated in unison, our possibilities are limitless.
