passage


8 comments:

  1. at glance this looks very simple , like bloodied teeth or some tiles , but with a closer look a lot of minute details can be seen .
    With red dribbling and spilling color it looks like a passage of circulation in a bloodstream .
    There´s a heart that´s in a different positions in each tile , a stairway and the broad diagonal line that goes thru the image like a pathway .
    at the right hand bottom corner i imagine seeing a human shape , a woman in a long coat ,
    on the left hand upper corner a half of a face .
    there´s also a circular shape in each of the tiles , but it cannot be made out what it is - a cell maybe ?
    It´s like a passage of things in life throught the pathways of the body , the life etched in the circulation

  2. your comments are always those of the painter, you see things you would have put inside.
    the reality is often simpler. some stained dirty glass, with things behind it. but in the end, so abstracted, that it becomes what i wanted it to become. usually nothing important. just a visual support to a vague dream. or nightmare.
    thanks for the reading, always appreciated :)

    1. looks like it´s the same image on each panel , but turned on a different positions or several images shot throught the same window and arranged here to form the Passage .
      And yes , i have a trippy painters point of wiew - i was sure i saw a drawing or painting of half a face on the left hand upper square :()

  3. i really like this. it's completely unclear what it is, so i can just look and think about all the things that are suggested, then come back to the "literal" image. <3

    1. yes, the subject is irrelevant. even the title.
      it's just an exercise and i think i've enjoyed the result. bloody and twisted. organic passage?

    2. yes exactly. in fact it makes me think of a heart, and not because you titled it that. there's a tiny shape like a heart visible in the corner of several of the squares - but also the whole square looks like a medical heart image. well, doesn't "look like" it so much but makes me think of it.
