NEW IDOLS
Fine Art
Painting
NEW IDOLS is a visual and cognitive journey through "idol" phenomenon. In a unique experiment, "New Idols" from popular science fiction, including the revered Star Wars saga, are depicted in a pseudo-Byzantine style. This innovative blend of the old and new, the traditional and the futuristic, symbolizes the intersection of our inherited cultural backgrounds with our openness to other cultures and new ideas.
The collection showcases 27 stunning pieces, and painted with tempera on wood. It provides an opportunity to meditate on our ability to not just combine images from different contexts, but to interpret and give them new meanings, thus creating new symbols and idols.
