"Antipodes, balance, walk on the golden line" , this project is a self-exploring, an experiment accompanied by a technological specificity of the material. In this way, I'm talking about the balance of values, a certain "golden" way. Inspired by the wanderings, it is an abstract vision of a particular location. The names of works, in fact, are not random numbers, but the geographical latitude and longitude of the place where the work was created. I experiment with the material, observe the process, in the process I can apply several layers of paint, fold, unfold, tear, reflect until I get the desired result. I love when the environment interferes with the process, rain, wind, it creates unexpected effects. The abstract background is combined with distinct minimalist geometric gold and silver shapes to create contrast and a definite dialogue of opposites, something in parallel with the existing one."

Doused in colour and surrounded by movement: Glib Franko harnesses aspects of 20th century abstract expressionism in a unique pictorial language. The velocity of mark making at times takes centre stage, at others a distilled explosion of colour and botanical scenes: all achieve an immersive effect in nature’s spectacle. Through the epiphanic unfolding of space, or translucent sheaths of colour, paintings will fade or crystallise into abstraction. Seeing Glib’s works on the wall brings their essential buoyancy to light. You can sense the history behind them, of such classic innovators as Yves Klein and Jackson Pollock: the former’s pure purveyance of colour, the latter’s interrogation of surface and depth. You look away refreshed by Glib’s paintings, their energy compounded by a profound interest in harmony, in palette and composition. They reside at a nuanced boundary: the crux between a return to visual innocence and pushing the classical into the new.
