HIGH CARAT GOLD

“Luminous Silence” from the “The Gardens of the World” collection
Gold leaf 23.75 carat, my own technique (natural egg tempera), a painting on canvas, 80 x 80 cm, in frame 94 x 94 cm, 2017.
The photos I’m showing were taken in natural light, to get an interesting effect of gold.

The golden painting and sculptures from the “The Gardens of the World” collection are dedicated to original interior designs as a solution for people who value rarity and uniqueness of works of art.

“The Gardens of the World” collection is an emotion captured in a painting, in wood and stone. Serenity and silence, allowing for internal meditation. A balance between minimalism and austerity in sculpture and a wealth of shapes and colors on canvas. The intensity and at the same time interwoven delicacy of colors, emphasizing the spontaneity of nature and landscapes.

The first part is inspired by Asia, woodblock prints and Japanese painting. Art characterized by monochromatic colours, and sometimes beautiful, intensive colours, as well as attention to detail is called yamato-e (Japanese paintings). It decorated screens, sliding doors and scrolls of kakemono.

In my paintings I use a technique of natural tempera, based on an egg binder, which is one of the most ancient techniques in painting. I use gold in flakes, 23.75 ct, silver leaf and recently platinum leaf. I also use mineral gold in powder (“the gold of the stars”) of the highest brightness and light-fastness.

The collection „The Gardens of the World” in the glamour style consists of paintings created intricately by me, mainly in egg tempera technique. The technique in pigments derived from natural rocks is based on a hand-prepared egg binder and is considered to be one of the oldest painting techniques.


HIGT-CARAT GOLD


The glow on the paintings is due to a delicate layer of silver, of platinum or high carat gold applied intricately, the knowledge of which I gained in the field of art conservation. I also use gold in powder including “gold star”. A real wealth of used materials, colors of natural pigments, ornaments and details.

The uniqueness of the collection consists in a forgotten painting technique known since ancient times – egg tempera, which recipe is shrouded in mystery. Additionally, the uniqueness of the collection consists in the idea of creating beauty. Also on a balanced composition and on the pursuit of perfection without overstepping its borders. But above all, it consists in painting in meditation, that is the frequency of silence and calmness.
