I am delighted to announce that I participated in this biennial with one of my paintings. The artwork I entered is titled "Environment," created with oil paints on a canvas measuring 100/70 cm, completed in 2022.
I am extremely grateful to have been accepted to participate in the London Art Biennial in 27-30. 07. 2023. This is a prestigious art platform that showcases creations from artists around the globe. The exhibition featured the works of 400 artists, and the standard was exceptionally high, filled with valuable pieces of art. Proceeds from the biennial will go towards charitable activities.
Despite the rainy weather, the galleries were brimming with visitors throughout the biennial days. The event took place in the heart of Chelsea, London, within the Chelsea Old Town Hall building. The exhibition was inaugurated with a speech by the Mayor of Chelsea. On the final day of the exhibition, awards were presented to the best artworks selected by the biennial's jury.
The entire event was vibrant and filled with emotions and art. Although my painting did not receive an award nor find a buyer, I am immensely content because I was chosen to participate in this grand event. I had the opportunity to witness and immerse myself in the art and spirit of this biennial, as well as to acquaint myself with numerous artists from around the world.
"Environment"
oil on canvas 100/70 cm. 2022.
I would like to introduce to you this picture "Environment". The picture painted by pointillism style, used oil paints and an acrylic base. Drawing time - 2 months. I have been inspired by the view which opened from my home window in London. The way that led me to this amazing view was a quite inexpectuble for me , but we never know what would encounter on our way. It's a view straight to the Themsa, an expensive, beautiful and posh place in London sity. The Thames is revealed with the buildings arranged along it is bearing the story of time. It is struck me how there are boats in the river with people living in them. Both they live in a posh place and they live in nature . In the boats the people planted trees and shrubs in pots, they made paths on other boats as if they had created floating streets in the small floating district. A contrast to the glass or century old buildings towering over the Thames. The Thames is still the same. I thought about how all this people somehow strive to get closer to the water to the historical and financial center, to the core that brings food for the body and food for the souls. Like seagulls jostling for territory and place in the universe of their existence. Although my thoughts sounded a little dramatic at that moment, when I observed this sight I thought that it had its own beauty and vitality. The energy of life swirled and realized in its best and variation in moment of time. I thought I would look at this picture from the seagulls point of view. Somehow, the world from above seemed to be much better and clear to me. From above, the general picture and different angles of the world's beauty are revealed. Is this why many people want to live high? I hope that you can touch to my thoughts which have been led me to paint this picture.
