four elements


Oil, canvas
4 canvases 100x100 cm (3,28 x 3,28 feet), 2009.


Four elements. Water. Fire. Air. Earth

Each element is shown in its whirlwind of colour – a combination of the static and motion. The whirlwind combines both Heraclitus fluidity and Parmenides serenity and unity. The whirlwind is not chaos, it is an entity, and it is a body. No wonder ancient people personalized and deified elements. It should beemphasized that the human soul for the artist is also a whirlwind (see “Soul”). Such an approach sometimes seems to be much more true to life than the contemporary waves of probability or superstrings theories.
