In naming its latest series of works "Thousand and One Nights," Kristina Viera Wolf is capable make the veil of Scheherazade not as a metaphor for the fantasy and dreams, but as a way to marry the nebulous idea of the soul with the physical body and human conditions. Most works in this series invite the viewer to notice an aerial experience, a sense of expansive movement, the lines and shapes are of a quality that can be imagined as similar to our own souls: hazy, air and seemingly untouchable, blown to the edges of the canvas boundaries thereof.
But there is a work in series representing the physical state of human experience. Inspired by her own activity (Kinomichi, Aikido, Tai Chi), his work "Arabian Night 501" serves as a force to bind the other paintings more airlines. Casting a glance, the painting seems an abstract interpretation of the human heart, triangular shapes represent the valves while the lines are extended the muscle itself. There is an electric power; fine lines and vivid refract against the curved shapes, like electric currents. Instead of drifting towards the edges of the canvas, the energy of these " electric currents "cause contraction pictorial elements as if they were in the middle of a thunderstorm, and the energy is contained in a space. This confinement increases the energy of the work and draws the eye toward the center of the movement the same way that the heart draws blood to the center of the body and remains the center of the body figuratively and literally.
On display until 27 February at the Gallery Art'et Miss (14, Rue Ste Anastase, 3rd, Paris) or on site at www.art- top.eu .
