Energy Myth
Artist Ivan Zupan took place . In art, it has its problems , masterly sophisticated technique has unbridled imagination , fueled by a deep rethinking of mythology. The aesthetics of his works is complicated, but a sincere sense of duty to serve the high ideals of the artist , an attempt to convey to the audience the vision of the world attest to the great creative nature .
The artist began to paint early. In his youth he was interested in painting, drawing, ceramics. Meeting with the Transcarpathian artist Paul Bedzirem determined his further creative development . "The Teacher " - so respectfully calls the old master Ivan Zupan . This meeting is oriented the artist's stylistic direction helped to learn a new technology, its possibilities and means of expression , prompted the choice of the genre , able to implement the most expressive and creative tasks aesthetic views . So there are mythological landscapes, scratch the primed sheet mystically realistic and expressive .
Tech Scratchy already spread widely . Its essence lies in the primer composition of leaf and needle scratching on the ground. The artist experimented with several layers of soil, then take up the needle , outlining the entire composition . Hatching of different directions , different widths - it is " finishing " work, which is achieved due to the effects of a multidimensional space. The shaded highlight key in chiaroscuro images and create the main effects of emotional coloring of the work. Nature sketches in pencil, made ​​in the Carpathians , the Crimea , near St. Petersburg , reinterpreted and transformed from sketches and studies in complex and rhythmic compositions . They are also required , such as the artist decided to create a multi-figure genre picture , which must be transmitted and personality and emotions , and traits of each character.

Having adopted the teacher techniques and skills of sophisticated equipment , the student shall bring them to perfection , largely surpassing the master. Execution requires a lot of hard work at every stage of the leaf , starting with primer and finishing shading. Sometimes on one sheet takes several months and during this time the mind's eye of the artist keeps the imagery and the emotional charge of the original idea .
Impenetrable thicket with intertwined branches and roots, mangled tree trunks are hidden from prying eyes incurious . It was as if the forest - the giants removed from us in space and in time, moved out of the world today in the ancient world , inhabited by strange creatures and symbols of light and darkness , good and evil , life and death. Purely compositional techniques gives the impression that the giant trees are rooted in the ground and push against the crowns in the vault of heaven .
Particular attention is paid to the light : it is fragile , surreal , the sonorous and bright seeping through the branches and roots. But the most surprising effect - a " reverse perspective " of the world. The light intensity increases from the foreground depth sheet. The View from the darkness into the brightly lit gave inspires all work that gives it a special philosophical sense . There are thoughts that it's not a crowd of trees with a difficult life , and we, the people , to embrace in a fierce battle , it is our portraits, mythological symbols encrypted . The roots - the ancestors intertwined , and we - the branches repeat this path Like humans , trees are endowed with a strong personality , just like people made ​​anonymous in the crowd. And all of this long-standing and today , really, tangibly and illuminated by the divine light , storing the energy of life .
