This morning was a bit rough for me, a lot of information flowing in, decision making that is never easy, research and so on, so not it's time to disconnect my brain from all that and travel to another dimension, see some artworks and forget about real life for an hour.
Today I'd like to show you the rest of the photos I took at the solo exhibition of Petre Caprita, a very talented artist with a vision and attention to detail, whose works put your mind and imagination to work.
This masterpiece is called Ancient Journey and even without the title, there are clues letting you know it is connected to ancient times. The particularity of this painting is the overlaid details on the right side. The most important thing here is that the painting is part of a private collection, which means after the exhibition was over, went back to the owner and this was a special occasion to watch it and take a photo as well.
I'd love to own this piece, but I have no proper space for it and I don't think I'm willing to pay the price either 😬
Introspections
This is a very interesting composition with a hidden meaning I think. If you have a proper look at this paining, you can see the honeycomb and the typewriter at the bottom, what instead of letters, has some colorful keys. There's a face at the top too. What can't be missing from these paintings is the numbers. In one of my previous posts from this exhibition you could see a number on each canvas. I'm curious what you see here :)
Tempus Exad Rerum
This is a famous Latin phrase meaning "time, that devours all things" or "time the consumer of things." Two repetitive elements you can find on this painting, that are the numbers and the honeycomb. The numbers are arranged to look like forming a clock, loosely of course. From my perspective, this is a hive and time is what bees need to do their thing, but then again, who knows what the artist meant.
It wasn't a simple painting though :) I love these 3D (kind of) paintings, that contain elements added, not just the paint.
The Wheel of Time
Another one that I'd love to see on my wall. It's a bit strange and complex enough to trigger your thoughts. Obviously the numbers can't be missing.
Time and Money
Yes, most likely you're smiling too as these are the two things everyone needs. Although I don't know if I fully understand the elements on the canvas, the overall aspect is fantastic. If you zoom in, you can see the print of the honeycomb. I suppose the round shaped object in the upper part of the canvas is the clock, which means time, obviously.
I guess my mind is a bit slow today for to deciphering art mysteries, so feel free to help me out here, share your thoughts :)
Inner Sound
This is a tough one, so I'll leave it to you.
The Search For Balance
Another one for you, let's see what you think you see here :)
In The Great Passage
Yes, I keep repeating myself, but I'd love to have this painting too. You need a few minutes to see every detail and then make a decision about what you see, but it's a fantastic one. It's like a big collage with a million details put together forming the concept. As you can see time is represented by numbers, as well as the sundial, and the different silhouettes could symbolize different phase of life.
No matter how strange and unconventional these paintings are, somehow I love them a lot. How about you?

Personally, I see this work as better in this collection, both in terms of the use of visual elements and their selection in the formal composition, which has been done correctly. It's also significant in terms of color harmony.
