PHOTOGRAPHY MEETS MATHEMATIC: "GEOMETRICAL"

posted by Monika Blanka Katterwe

Geometrical This work emerged from an investigation into the universal geometric foundations that shape our reality. It explores the striking similarities between geometric structures on the molecular and mineral levels — those invisible ordering principles that underlie both living and non-living matter. Starting from a specially created photograph in which light is used as a painterly medium, the piece merges with mathematical modulations. Fractal formulas, custom-adapted shapes, and their transformations and fusions give rise to a hybrid form: at once crystalline and organic, growing and dissolving. Within a luminous geometric framework, a golden, fragmented structure unfolds — delicate yet monumental. It appears to exist in a state of permanent transformation, suspended between order and dissolution, between molecular precision and cosmic expanse. „Geometrical“ visualizes the poetry of mathematics. It demonstrates how photography and algorithmic creation together generate a new, independent visual language — a contemporary fusion in which light, code, and matter combine to make complex universal connections visible and experiential.

ATLANTIC DRIFT

posted by Camilo

Atlantic Drift (Floating Tree) Oil on Canvas The Narrative Inspired by the artist’s years living along the rugged North Devon coastline, Floating Tree is a poignant exploration of displacement, resilience, and the persistence of memory. The tree itself bears the physical scars of the Atlantic—its boughs permanently bent and sculpted by the relentless coastal winds that define the North Devon landscape. Symbolism and personal History By severing the land from the horizon, the artist transforms a familiar coastal memory into a surreal "island of the mind." The exposed roots suggest a life that remains nourished by its origins, even when the physical ground beneath it has been removed. It captures the essence of living on the edge of the Atlantic, where the elements are both a creative and a destructive force. This work serves as a portrait of "belonging" that transcends geography. It is a reminder that we carry our home, our personal weather, and our roots with us, drifting through the vast, blue unknown of life's many transitions. It stands as a testament to the endurance of the spirit against the prevailing winds of change.

WHEN COLORS FORGET THEIR NAMES

posted by Patrick Joosten

In When Colors Forget Their Names, Patrick Joosten surrenders the canvas to pure chromatic instinct a world where blue no longer submits to its definition, where red bleeds freely into the unknown. True to his self-taught philosophy of unbridled creativity, Joosten builds the surface through sweeping vertical gestures and richly layered acrylics, as if the painting itself is caught mid-transformation, refusing to settle into any recognizable form.

EMOTIONAL STATA

posted by Waldemar Tłuczek

The painting explores the problems increasingly experienced by contemporary society: emotional problems. Excessive emotion is initially an unnoticeable problem, when we no longer cope. First, we feel regret, then resignation, depression sets in, and we need help. When we enter a state of depression, the body and soul slowly turn into an unfeeling rock, and the personality fades away. The Gate motif in the painting symbolizes the place where a difficult phase in life ends, where we leave our problems behind. After the Gate closes, a new phase can begin, a kind of rebirth of the soul.
