“Overgrowon in green”
…a feeling of sitting between two chairs…the desire for control…for order, for the deliberate placement of every shape, every line, every color. And at the same time, emotional chaos…something barely tangible that is difficult to guide. The green…occupying the entire space…not calm or harmonious, but alive, almost pressing. At first, the forms manage to preserve my sense of structure and orientation. But nothing in this painting remains stable…everything seems to be in motion, as if something is changing even before I am able to name it.
At first, I painted the elements in restrained muted colors, expecting them to manifest my sense of structure…I somehow gave everything I had while allowing my emotions to become visible only very cautiously. Why? I have no idea! But the longer I worked, the more this control dissolved. I introduced elements in neon colors, and only now do I realize this consciously chosen rupture. Perhaps it was even a small emotional act of resistance against my own caution. These neon colors are exactly what opened up the painting. Suddenly there was energy, tension, vulnerability. Not loud, but impossible to overlook. To me, these accents are like moments when emotions break through the surface, even though the mind actually wants to control them.
For me, “Overgrown in Green” therefore means more than just a color. It describes a process. The slow permeation by something alive. A state between thinking and feeling, between control and surrender. Perhaps also the moment when I stop trying to explain myself — and begin to truly feel myself.
