The ladder of holy feelings floats above time!
Lyudmila Dakhova
2015 acrylic on canvas 28 x 20 in
Lyudmila Dakhova is an artist living in Rivne, Rivne Oblast, Ukraine. She says about “ladder of holy feeling”: “this piece is now in Moscow, there was an exhibition there in 2016.” And about her work: “My works reflect a metaphysical perception of reality, through examination of colors and symbols, mysteries of present, past and future. I work with mixed technics in a style which combines symbolism and futurism, geometrical abstraction with figurative elements and numerological details. This is painting as a flow of energy. The modulation of form is not just a change in the contours of objects, it is a deep energetic work with spaces and movements, creating an effect of elusiveness, ghostliness, vibration, where the boundaries of form blur, flow, turning into a moving process. This makes them essentially metaphysical, occult works, turning them into plastic spells, fixed in painting. Vibration of Form as a Metaphysical Gesture!
“Not only of an image, but of a field of force. In my insertion, each brushstroke is not just a plastic act, but an introduction—sacred introduction into the fabric of the visible and invisible. Painting here is not a representation, but a magical mediation. Energy passes through the form, deforms it, charges and directs it—creates a vibration effect that is thought not by the eyes, but by the nervous system of the viewer. Modulation as an alchemy of form! Instead of a static form, a changeable, fluid modulation, like a spell. The object of maintaining stability, becoming a portal to complex optical fields, in the image, as if trembling between worlds, producing in the viewer an unclear but powerful impression of co-presence with something beyond the rational. Phantoms as carriers of the sacred! Here phantoms are not images, but entities. They do not strive to please, they do not illustrate, but live within the canvas. These are plastic spirits, coded in a canvas. Their mission is to be witnesses and transmitters of the invisible. As for the art market, for professionals of the art system, it is obvious that this practice is not subject to replication—each object is unique not only in its visual code, but also in its internal energy architecture. These are items of collectible value that require not just aesthetic, but also metaphysical perception.” Lyudmila Dakhova at Saatchi Art.
