This work is part of an ongoing cycle exploring ambivalent states of contemporary existence.
Title: Thoughts
Medium: Acrylic on canvas
Year: 2025
Format: Portrait format (18 × 24 inches)
Colour Space: A clear, high-contrast palette of blue, red, black, and a warm golden yellow
Stylistic Classification: Geometric-symbolist abstraction with cosmic-energetic and graphic elements
„Thoughts“ presents a frontal, stylised figure surrounded by floating signs within a luminous field. The divided face and the animated space around the head point to inner processes of thinking.
Thought as Resonance
In an affirmative reading, consciousness appears as a resonant process. Closed eyes suggest inner alignment, while the floating forms indicate mental connections. Blue and red merge rationality, intuition, and emotion. The golden-yellow background emphasises a spiritual dimension of thought.
Thought as Overload
From a critical perspective, the work addresses mental saturation. The multitude of signs evokes the constant flow of information shaping contemporary life. Outer calm contrasts with inner unrest. Thinking becomes a state of continuous activation, in which balance remains fragile.
Conclusion
The work presents consciousness between resonance and overload. It follows the principle of the integrity of ambivalence.
