Man without Qualithies II

For the 100pcs platform, we chose one of Absolon's latest paintings, called Man Without Qualithies II. The picture plays with the motif of the foreground and background, the character of a man whose readability compete with everything behind her. The name of the image quite clearly tells us that his leitmotif is not exactly a hero. Maybe a little like a novel man without properties is missing this person at the time in which he lives, a sense of reality. It is resigned in it. But it is not an indifference in the indifference, but rather a warning about how much we are part of the tangle of relationships and systems we call reality. We have the opportunity to be grinded or grabbed it by the hairs and actively transform it.

The word of the author:

My work is quite abstract, and although it is based on real experiences and details, this series is more narrative. The fact that in the middle of the picture is often a character that should be suppressed at the same time. The environment is more pronounced and forms the main protagonist. Attention should not be directly to him, but rather on his uncertain existence.
