Good News Every Day_Opening 18th of July, 4 pm
The duty of the artist is to rethink the surrounding reality and reflect it in a new look, transforming it with available means. Thus, the important appears clearly, the insignificant disappears. The hidden becomes clear, the superficial dissipates and the depth of things emerges.
The “Good News Every Day” project is based on recording everyday events and experiences, which are captured in the form of spontaneous visual images. These images are deliberately rude, lacking detail and careful study. For several years, the author has recorded his experiences in the form of such almost random images. In a comic and humorous way, they refract the events of our turbulent everyday life and allow us to look at them in a new way. Spontaneous painting serves the author as a psychoanalytic therapy that allows to come to terms with the anxiety of the world.
The works are made using computer graphics and combine traditional digital drawing techniques with generative graphics and use of artificial intelligence.
