The thinking self, 2020

The series of abstract large-format paintings called Red Beach is a representation of longing and memories of holidays to faraway destinations, distinguished by the uniqueness of the landscape with energetic colours. Drawing attention to the beauty, richness and diversity of the natural forms of the Italian coast or the Dubai desert areas. Nostalgia for normal, old life and the carefree nature of spontaneous travel decisions and numerous entertainments.

It was a hot summer, so the studio rooms were also filled to the brim with warmth. Loud oriental techno sounded in the background. All the canvases were on a colourful surface - the floor. Around them, I, running barefoot, poured paints onto the canvas with flair, glancing at the blue sky and the scorching sun creeping into the studio. It was something of a thoughtful improvisation.  Red Beach is an emphasis on colour and textural assumptions - experimenting with colour, texture, painting media. The careful observer will notice the myriad details in texture and the detail in the degree of sheen on the canvases (...).

The large-format, impasto painting Thinking Self is composed of colours such as white, beige, pale pink, orange and silver. The work is signed on the reverse and does not require framing.
