About the Item
In several mystical traditions, there are common elements that are needed for spiritual metamorphosis and transitions to another, transcendent dimension. In Sufism, there is also an inner dimension to the law that has to do with repentance, the abasement of desire, and discipline of the self, or the elimination of the ego. Transparent figures emphasize the inner world of pure innocence which is the prototype human being, pure consciousness, one's true identity, to be contrasted with the material human who is bound by one's senses and materialism. Materialism is shown by also patterns in the paintings. The two different layers are against each other in a contradictory way. Feeling the need to go deeper into this inner, imaginative world, I began to set artworks from the past in less familiar contexts such as seas or patterns and combine the figure with them where they seemed to become like elements in some greater dream. With her small paper works, Ece Gauer moves forward without ever being able to see more than one step ahead, sometimes side-stepping off on a detour, at others retracing her steps, getting to know old ground more surely and intimately by going over it once more. But from time to time she advances with leaps and bounds into the different creative territory; she takes a new, unexplored pathway that marks a major departure, and takes me out of her comfort zone. A painting can become a gateway that allows the imagination to move freely between different worlds, creating connections between individuals and cultures separate in time and space, and allowing old and new world views to cross swords. It is a way of testing yourself, putting your skill and imagination on the line. In every painting, you run the risk of failure. As it develops, it becomes a visual problem that does not always have an obvious solution.
