Kloska Ovidiu

Artist Statement "My visual universe is an alchemy between dream and matter, between what can be touched and what can only be intuited. I constantly seek that poetic tension between chaos and order, between darkness and light. In my recent series Between the Black and Divine, I dive even deeper into this liminal space — a place where the absence of light becomes sacred, and the void itself begins to whisper. Black is not just color or shadow; it is a presence, a cosmic silence from which all forms emerge and dissolve. It holds within it memory, trauma, rebirth, but also the magnetic pull of the divine unknown. I am drawn to surfaces marked by time — rusted metal, peeling walls, tree bark — textures that carry stories and spiritual residue. They speak to me, not in words, but in vibrations, in a language older than language. I collect these fragments of the world’s decay and translate them into my own visual grammar. There is no separation between the physical and the spiritual in my art. The gesture becomes prayer, the pigment becomes energy, and the canvas transforms into a threshold. I am not painting objects. I am revealing frequencies — fields of tension between the seen and the unseen, between noise and silence, between the wound and the transcendence it can become. To me, painting is an act of spiritual decoding — a ritual of opening the invisible into form, of letting the subconscious and the sacred collide. Each artwork is not just a finished piece, but a living process, a moment of surrender, and an invitation to the viewer to enter a space of contemplation, mystery, and transformation."
