Rocaille

Rocaille's series of works were originally motivated by formal searches. I wanted to create some modern landscapes that had a clear reference to the classic French landscape from the time of Antoine Watteau. Hence, the name Rocaille is an appeal to the early 18th century and its aesthetics. Most of the works feature, in one way or another, the shape of an oval. In fact, it is a circle, but more aestheticized and refined. The oval works with a torn canvas body are more conceptual. They talk about the inextricable connection to classical art and about the death of it as a medium in our era.
