PHOTOSYNTHESIS "Aphelandra" (lat.) #3 painting in this series
The idea to create a series of paintings "Photosynthesis" arose precisely because I have always been concerned about environmental issues. An increasing number of people are combining their activities with the restoration of the environmental situation around the world. This is one of the biggest problems of our time.
The call for a series of paintings "Photosynthesis" is for people to broaden their horizons, go beyond their consumption and stop thinking only about themselves.
In the paintings, I made acrylic paint splatter, which gives a feeling of space. Thus, as if hinting: at a problem of enormous scale. Some works depict the process of rot on the leaves. This suggests that Mother Nature can no longer cope with the pressure of humanity, and the use of its resources, which inevitably affect the normalization of the environment.
The geometry present in the paintings symbolizes the awareness of each individual, understanding, and perception of the environment.
The shades of gold and silver symbolize what is most important for humanity. Silver is associated with innocence and wisdom. Gold - the color of justice, honor, greatness.
How much do you appreciate Mother Nature and realize that just throwing away garbage and not disposing of properly it is harmful?
