After the Ornament
2026, 70×55 cm
Mixed media technique: stencil relief, multi-layered patination
Materials: textured plaster, gypsum, acrylics, waxes, patina
The surface retains not the ornament itself, but the structure left behind by it. Individual fragments preserve the original rhythm and geometry, while traces of later layers break apart and almost disappear into the texture. The work resembles a surface that has undergone application, change and destruction: the original pattern is lost, but its underlying order can still be discerned.
Broken Geometry
2026, 75×55 cm
Mixed media technique: stencil relief, multi-layered patination
Materials: textured plaster, gypsum, acrylics, waxes, patina
The repeating rhombus module establishes a strict diagonal grid, but gaps, shifts and missing fragments appear in certain areas. The system remains legible, although it no longer works flawlessly. The composition rests on this tension: ordered geometry meets the more chaotic texture within the rhombi, while the layered pattern suggests a surface altered over time.
Architectonics of Ornament
2026, 70×55 cm
Mixed media technique: stencil relief, multi-layered patination
Materials: textured plaster, gypsum, acrylics, waxes, patina
The composition is built as a system of nested ornamental fields. The outer border establishes a rhythm, the dark inner field adds depth, and the central diamond-shaped structure connects the vertical and horizontal axes.
Repetition and symmetry hold the composition together, while worn areas, chips and irregularities in the relief disturb its strict order. Ornament becomes more than surface decoration: it acts as the architecture of the work, connecting its different layers into a coherent whole.
Beginning of Decay
2026, 65×40 cm
Mixed media technique: stencil relief, multi-layered patination
Materials: textured plaster, gypsum, acrylics, waxes, patina
The surface still retains an almost strict geometry, but the first cracks and separating layers begin to disturb its coherence. The ornament remains ordered, although tension has entered its structure. Destruction is only beginning: rather than collapsing the system at once, it gradually reveals its vulnerability.
