Minoan totem. (2019) Pittura da Dengiz Zolte

For me, painting is akin to magic and an artist  sort of  a mediator between the subtle world and people, capable  to create  the illusion of reality from emptiness. Like a magician  he accepts information in the form of fragments of dreams and fantasies deciphers it, and then materializes into the object of contemplation. I have ancestry of Siberian shamans, ancient chiefs, blacksmiths and jewellers. So creativity deep in my genes. The process of  birth of new painting  like a spiritual immersion into canvas or a meditation to me. I never know in advance what I will portray, because I do not make sketches. Instead of it  I create layer by layers a chaos by colours, then gaze into the depths of the canvas, trying to understand what would those created patterns like to tell me. Sometimes when I am lucky, images occur in hours, but sometimes it takes a few days to manifest them and the picture gets a heavy texture. I like to pull out images with their story from  abyss of abstraction.  Very often they are  from Greek mythology. I do not know why it happens. Maybe because as any artist unconsciously  I would like to be a part of  history  and creating a piece of art on a classic subject means  being on the same team with the Great Masters of the past and it is a great honor for me.
