゜✧*̣̩☽⋆゜ Between Traditional Cake and Frites (double head falcon) and Graphon, 2021, woven tapestry, 173x250cm.
The series of four woven tapestries 2017-2021 is a night dream mapping that overlaps with day life experiences.
This works are combination of two streams of my interests that are painting and textile. It’s a reflection on the old tradition of weaving, but the content is depicting night dreams rather than religion and city folklore mapping.
I’m combining up to 8 oil paintings I made in past months and years, matching its backgrounds and colors. As well as in pre-renaissance art I’m not using perspective and rather play with the importance of each story. Stories are not happening in the linear timing of our expectation of causes and consequences. You can read the image from several places. That reminds me night dreaming, where the time and the space has different logic.
For this purposes I’m collecting dreams for 17 years and painting them together with overlapping day life experiences .
In the middle bottom position is Gryphon, representing Self, he bought frites and I bought traditional cake. Its pointing to balance between mainstream and tradition, to be complete human being, besides that frites are square shape with fire color referring about logical thinking and the cake is round referring to feelings, I used this wise metaphor in bordure for modern folklore imagery.

A dream that inspired tapestry Ghost In White Clothes:
It was night and we were running from an old city made from stone. We were running away from a huge ghost hunting us and flying above. Everyone was screaming. The ghost flew into the crowd and got small in human size, in a ghost costume he was running away from himself as well and screaming. with a comedian shimmer in his eyes. He asked me if I wanted to see something and I agreed. We walked to the left and the edge of the sea. There was a flood going to destroy the city - which he didn't care about. He asked me if I wanted to live. And I said yes. Then the floor stopped. I saw a sparkle positioned in the sea in my body and in his one, coming through space and time. And my sister in gamekeeper clothes was coming from the right. In Czech the word "Spirit" and "ghost" are the same.
