Nothingness is a theme I have been exploring for many years. This is how I termed dominant blackness. Almost overwhelming. However, it is not total. So the abstract image accompanying it is my search for the pure form of the image, devoid of objectification, where it becomes an independent being. There arises a broad spectrum for toying with form, looking for matter and structures accompanying them. I am investigating the sphere of nothingness occurring inside its source contrary to it, which is the human – their void. A dialogue occurs between artistic definitions – the statics of blackness and the dynamics of whiteness, unlimited space and an enclosed object, a being and a lack of it. Prolonged scenes allow an analysis of the components of the image and all the details, unnoticeable with the full dynamics of the mobile image. The accompanying concepts such as darkness, domination, chiaroscuro and blackness itself give inspirations and pose a challenge for a search for appropriate means of expression. Initially, it was explored with graphic techniques as aquatint and mezzotint. Next, by means of programs for digitizing an image since certain luminous spots, textures and shapes would sometimes be impracticable in traditional graphic techniques. Acquired patience, knowledge and artistic awareness were finally materialized and enclosed. The diploma is composed of nineteen scenes. I rendered raw three-dimensional objects in the Maxon Cinema 4D program. I subjected them to deformation in Adobe After Effects. I closed each scene in one common figure. At the end I aggregated the entirety in Adobe Premiere Pro. A doubled, fragmentarily overlapping, almost ten-minute looped sequence is supposed to finally put the viewer in absolute silence, surrounding darkness before the challenge of feeling the final essence of the form.
