Reaching for the sky

Reaching for the sky is a new painting, from my series Invisible Ties. "Korent also enhances the atmosphere with his depiction of the scene, which is in fact pure colour structure, created with numerous thick layers of intense, glowing colours. Despite the abstract nature of the background, where depth is indicated only with shadows or stains of cold colours, the images give an impression of integrity, to which the articulated treatment of the image surface - an important characteristic of Korent's artistic expression - undoubtedly contributes. By means of a brush, he forms a dense colour substance and enhances the psychological effects of the painted motifs." (Written by curator N. Kovšca)
