Power - International digital exhibition catalog
In this exhibition, we seek to explore what Power is. Is it a physical meaning, or is strength something internal? Does being strong mean having an advantage over someone and being the first, or is it about willpower when a person has almighty patience and goes step by step to his goal? Does power have gender, man’s superiority over nature, or do time and age affect power? Everyone has their own truth. Let’s think about the meaning of power and show our own vision in this exhibition!

About artwork<br />
Displaced persons often face enormous challenges, and their condition is one of uncertainty,<br />
shock, and trauma. They are forced to navigate a new and unfamiliar environment,<br />
yet they face the emotional and psychological consequences of their displacement.<br />
Despite these difficulties, many displaced people show incredible resilience and<br />
determination to rebuild their lives. The image of pears on dry branches reinforces the<br />
symbolism of a woman fleeing war, as well as the discomfort present that reflects the<br />
harsh reality that displaced people face. This creates a more powerful and poignant<br />
message that emphasizes their struggle and resilience.<br />
As an artist, I believe it is our duty to use our platforms to raise awareness of their struggles,<br />
advocate for their rights, and ensure their well-being.<br />
Artist Statement<br />
My main criterion is the search for harmony. To engage the viewer, they must feel involved<br />
in the work. Therefore, my paintings aim to provide a sense of comfort and tranquility,<br />
reminding the viewer that they are not alone in society. The desire to create a<br />
calming and restful atmosphere is always at the basis of my art.<br />
