„When you feel the earth you can breathe the air / Infinite space absolute time”
Touch the earth and breathe the air
Love as a form of existence outside time and space
Motto:
„Alături de libertatea pe care o revelează orice operă de artă, el descoperă, în plus, posibilitatea de ieşire din timp prin «concetrarea» lui, ceea ce este deja un pas important în lupta cu timpul, lupta pe care trebuie s-o dea fiecare om în parte, neajutorat de nimeni.”
Mircea Eliade
Motto:
”Along with the freedom that reveals any work of art, he discovers, the possibility of exiting time through its «concentration», which is already an important step in fighting time, the battle each man should have, helpless”
Mircea Eliade
Through the new series of works "When You Feel the Earth You Can Breathe the Air", Andreea Costenco calls for an unexpected getaway "out of time", by Eliade's terms, to discover a new kind of freedom.
The 20 paintings, crafted by traditional means, present new perspectives on freedom as currency, using time, freedom of thought and awareness, meta-textually sustained through considerable time invested in thousands of pages of reading.
For Andreea, the theme and also the "key formula" to access the infinite space and absolute time is love. The true quality of the series of paintings is found in the painter`s effort to restore the theme through the idea of the vast space that metamorphoses and comes to life, giving colour and a philosophical dimension to the dynamics of the feeling of love.
Andrea's experience in painting, multimedia arts but also time spent as a designer, serves and enriches this series of works with a unique exhibition in Romania.
"The story is trying to capture a state based on elements of infinite and timelessness through painting. It`s about the moment of entering the sacred space of absolute love, where time and space are suspended”, writes Andreea Costenco.
The image is accompanied by sound, light and a type of spatial coordination that invites a kind of meditation, relaxation as recognition of harmony throughout our space and universe as a form of exegesis on the whole, decomposed in the form of movement, which attempts to reveal unity.
Area as shape of transformation becomes a form of deep breathing and through the awareness of earthly man - woman duality it pours through composed breath and the universe reunites.
Thus the two theme’s breathing restores the whole universe in a new dance, purified by an infinite moment of absolute brilliance. Living the mystery of love is the form that launches a new universal structure and gives a restored and reintegrated sense, where everything becomes an absolute and timeless presence.
Duality disappears with the full blast of the divine breath and expands into infinity, becoming unity. The dynamics is achieved in the moment of movement and resumes the temporal and circular course of existence that will always have regard to infinity and return to its original shape. The course ends with the exit from sacred time and the return to profane time. "
Beyond the metaphysical intent described above, in this series, Andreea Costenco`s works also portray a new and interesting light on the act of creation itself, arguments for which this exhibition deserves once again full attention of the public.
