I started a new painting that I decided to film in a little more detail. I have short videos of my paintings but I decided to film this one longer. The purpose of the video is to show how slow and long the time it takes to create a pointillism painting is. This is the first part of the process. You can see the video on my YouTube channel.
The goal of pointillism is not to create a copy of the observed image. The aim of pointillism is to evoke sensations and thoughts in the viewer through the vibration created by the points in the painting. This gives the brain the opportunity to play with the colour and provoke the imagination. In art, it is crucial to provoke imagination and lead to certain insights about the idea. The idea and imagination are the arousal of electronic impulses in the brain, sparks of light between certain neural connections. These sparks in our brain are points of light that interact with other points—cells that create images, thoughts, and feelings in the vast conglomerate known as the human brain.
Exhibition of paintings by the artist Svilen Georgiev. The exhibition is called "Particles of light #pointillism". and will present pointillist paintings in oil, acrylic, watercolour and drawing techniques. The paintings were painted in London, United Kingdom, where the artist lives and works. The exhibition will be exhibited in the Sofia Gallery in the building of the Bulgarian Embassy in London under the patronage of the Bulgarian Cultural Institute London. The exhibition presents paintings inspired by the life and thoughts of the artist and his idea of the point as a particle of light. The light with its particles as a parallel to the point in the picture and the picture as a kind of point carrying information. The exhibition will officially open on 09.11.2023 at Sofia Gallery, London
