Triptych

1. Faith in the Serbian people through religion (the image depicts St. Basil of Ostrog (Vasilije Ostroški), a church, an Orthodox cross and the flame of a candle) – mixed media technique, sand on canvas, used for the saint’s figure to create a rustic, antique effect.

2. Tradition and culture, represented through folk costume, wheat, plums, a Serbian fence, but also a part of the suffering of the Serbian people (a soldier who fought in the First World War), loyal to his nation (the symbol on the left: Only Unity Saves the Serbs), and an old, worn-out traditional shoe (opanak), as a symbol of the soldiers’ sacrifice for their Serbian kin.
