A contemporary approach on icon painting focusing on the ‘likeness and presence’ of the depicted within the spirit of our times. In its fundamental difference between other types of portraiture the icon ‘invests the anthropomorphic figure with a meaning that its visibility cannot support; the idea of the invisible and the incomprehensible.’
Continuously exploring the virtues of the icon painting system as they had been expressed through the ages and being aware of their deep influence in modern and avant guard art (ie Malevich, Rodchenko, Kandisky, Matisse, Shagal), we are looking to produce contemporary icons that can vigorously assert the spiritual values and visual strength of this tradition.
