I call this work „the blue hour“ in lapland. tiny acrylic paintings embedded in resin spheres, on wooden canvas (80 cm).
my title has nothing to do with sadness, but with the magical colours of the polar night: around and above the arctic circle, polar night starts at the end of november and lasts some 52 days. sometimes from 10 o’clock in the „morning“ the magic works its wonders in blue. a few hours later the stars begin their twinkling, and night falls…at 2.00 in the afternoon 🌟 SOLD
my anothermicroworld – geology of the soul / golden islands (16). mixed media: steelplate, acrylic paints, inks, mixatives, resin – all embedded in plywood (40 x 40 cm). somebody said once about this work: „another circular door for us to open in our minds. once open, we allow ourselves to drift into dreams and experience deep positive feelings.“
brainstorming: extreme snow and freezing conditions – in my head. it’s interesting to be witnessing the multible birth of the snowflakes – till full-grown to a whiteout. that’s the true sound of the nature. anyways, warm thoughts keep the soul warm, even in stormy weather. yep, emotions are just valuefree feelings, only the poor thoughts try to classify them 😄 mixed media: acrylics and several layers of bio-resin on canvas.
ruska – indian summer: acrylics, polymer binder, resin on wooden canvas, 50 x 50 cm. the very last colour gasp of the mother earth is completely insane, and i am fully addicted into it…especially in lapland. the colours of fall are even more insane, there, in lapland’s autumn…just to fall in love 😂: they glow, are bright; their fiery shades are just incredible in the fall, in the polar zone. my is in head in fire, my toes in permafrost…
this work is a kind of a surprise to me; in a woundrous way it’s changing its colour, depending on light. it was quite fantastic to be within these colours, but also difficult to leave this small world…
