SICOE AT THE GALLERY

In Silvester Plotajs Sicoe’s paintings, colour is the building block of infinite expressiveness. Its thickening in the sense of “more is more and never too much” inside every painting presents itself as the challenge of exploring the boundaries between the expressiveness of colour and responsiveness of light. The eruption of colour and the intensity of light complement one another in a rhythm of images that the painter deliberately distributes across the artistic space despite the seeming lightness and jocularity. The balance of the visual field is achieved through a firm drawing and the line inside it, which, as the basic elements of expression, strengthen and encompass all later colour layers and compositional relationships.
