Eastern Gate/Golden Gate

Artist:  Simonida Perica Uth

Artist’s Statement
For me, the art is a journey into our sub-consciousness. Although we long for peace and harmony, we inevitably face torments in our life journey. Art faces both aspects and helps us understand ourselves, while reflecting on our time and society. The purpose of art is to talk to us and guide us to our inner emotions. In the end, it is like looking into a mirror.

These pieces aimed to connect opposites like old and new. Glorious elements of the biblical past with modern mixed media like copper leaf, Chinese ink, and oil pastel. A combination to give spark to our flight of imagination.
