About the work

Vladimir Houdek for 100pcs

In my work, I have been based on several topics that intertwine and endlessly complement. I do not always close them hermetically, I always try to build on them in some way. One of the main topics is a utopia for me. I do not want to create utopias, but I start from them in my work so that I respond to them differently. One of these motifs is imperfection, or paradoxically the perfection that we people are still trying to do. It is a moment when I realize that the perfection actually destroys us and eats from the inside, but we need it to understand the imperfection. This is the main line for me what creates my belongings - utopia and dystopia.

This painting from 2016 - 2017 is not called as many of my other paintings. In this series I worked with an OP-art background and I incorporated the so-called realistic element. The OP-art background was to resemble a certain misinformation, a certain cluster of information that came to us, but we can't decode them. And a realistic element should show some certainty, but also uncertainty. There are a lot of paradoxes. I came out a lot from Dadaist thinking, when there is reality, unrealistic, irrationality, rationality.
