Ordo Amoris  

Artist Statement:

I am an abstract artist based in Prague, Europe, who creates abstract paintings from experimentation and exploration of a theme of freedom which I consider to be the essence of the primary source. Whether we are capable to create without any concept in our thinking mind, rather connected to the infinite energy, freely, consciously. But even if the concept turns into non-concept, it still seems to be a concept. The question I ask is: what is the freedom, then?

I received a Master of Philosophy of Art degree at Charles University in Prague, Czech republic. Not only constantly answers seeking studies, but as well my thoughts which go beyond what is usually seen and known, influenced my paintings. I create, not only in my works, the reality of that “what is", ignoring the habitual responses and unconscious thoughts, choosing the pure frequency of being and pasting it onto creation and my art. But it is not about choices we are usually familiar with, but rather a clarity of doing in non-doing (explained in the old Eastern philosophy of wu-wei) It is about the studying the true self which is without self, tasting the real essence of being, when the mind is in conscious, wide-awake present stillness in which it starts to create. That is for me pure energy of being and creating in freedom. And there is great Love.

My current work concerns questions and subsequent conversation that arises between the universal energies of something that is considered and something that comes from a priori freedom. The crucial seems to be the space that occurs in form, somewhere between in an essential ratio of both movements manifested in my visual expression.
