Abstract: Folowing the thought of Ludwig Wittgenstein: "The limits of my language means the limits of my world" we may conclude that naming "colour is directly related to our knowlage of its subject. Due to our intuition it is posssible to interpret any abstarct phenomena. Let's make a theoretical assumption that the "colour” does not exist. Identifying something as "blue"or "red"' is just a matter of a specyfic "code" which we use in order to communicate with one another. However, when contemplating the same object, do we absolutely see the same thing? Do we read the same "code" in the same way?
The art operates the language of the methaphor. Through these codes and symbols, the artist conveys the message. Each question that is created within my head is being reflected on the canvas, paper as well as the form of movie or the words.
The expressive gestures and vivid colors are being strengthen by the sense of excitation. The permeate structures and colours create additional spaces and optical illusions. The lithography, in a particular way, connects various aspects that are of a great importance to me. First of all, it registers each footprint left on a stone and also let me integrate various forms and colours. This specific technique allows me to unlimited sense of expression. The stone, patient enough, initiates the creation of the multidimensional forms of graphics made only by gestures.
My artistic activity is based mainly on an expressive “ here and now” action. It requires an intense mental effort „entering” in „that” particular moment as well as creating the gesture that have been planned before.
