SACRED ROTATIONS

SACRED ROTATIONS is a mobile painting installation with sound in which I used works from the MAŁGORZATA. ICON series.

The exhibited works are the result of inspirations linked to the history of icons. I took note of the figure’s gestures as an important symbolic element. I also referred to the idea of prayer wheels supporting the fulfillment of wishes. All of these elements have universal qualities; they refer to sacred traditions and secular hopes and everyday life.

A parallel aspect of the installation is the modernization of the idea of a holy person in the form of a celebrity surrounded by admiration and even reverence.

In the SACRED ROTATIONS installation, I used paintings from the series MARGARET. ICON:

– Margaret. Icon / Blue Cat, acrylic on fabric, 230 x 160 cm, 2023

– Margaret. Icon / Red Cat, acrylic on fabric, 230 x 160 cm, 2023

– Margaret. Icon / Green Cat, acrylic on fabric, 230 x 160 cm, 2023
