About the Item
This 39.37" x 27.55" acrylic on canvas painting by Katarina Dordevic explores the artist's interest in water and archaeological remnants.
"The painting is a vivid evidence of my interest in nature (especially waters), patina with which the archaeological remnants are covered and weaving craftsmanship. Through a combination of figurative appearance and ornamental drawings the “Bodement 2” explores metaphysical atmosphere of the oneiric world in which the river spirit, the fish and human crafts are related to water. Inspired by the textile crafts and artefacts, this painting develops the idea of equilibrium in the composition. One of the most consistently intriguing elements, besides the kilim weaving technique and the symmetry of kilim rugs, is the use of symbolism in their designs. Many of designs are rooted in symbols that had meaning to specific tribes and weavers, symbols with which the ideas and beliefs are transferred to observers. The process of making this pattern is slow, precise and meditating, but at the same time, it opens up a space for intuitive organization of the composition. The decorative element of the background and the ornamental pattern on the border surrounding central rectangle of the painting is the frame for the anthropomorphic figure. This painting echoes water, water creatures, fish, natural reflections, as well as Lepenskivir archaeological collection. I believe that the truth of existence can be found in the fragments of the nature and traditional crafts heritage, therefore, my artwork is expansive and texturally detailed. It is my mental image or impression of my experience, in which this vision is never completely clear and precise, and it establishes a conditioned response in the painting." -- Katarina Dordevic

In this piece, that focus is the line starting in the lower right corner that reaches up and left before intersecting the blue and aqua fields and turning to intersect the horizon line of the composition. The other lines were then arranged as an extension of that core structure. Every field was composed of multiple translucent layers resulting in complex depth and visual texture." -- Bryan Boone...Category
