Blue Bubbles in My Glass

Description

In his latest collection, Viktor Kobylianski deepens his investigation into how materials hold memory, tension, and the subtle residue of internal states. Each work begins as a tactile exchange with mineral-based slurries, locally sourced sand, pigments, and raw canvas—materials that respond to pressure, absence, and the passage of time. Rather than striving for a polished image, Kobylianski allows the surface to function as a record of process, preserving traces of movement and stillness alike.

Across the series, forms shift between grounded, earth-toned impressions and more vibrant, exploratory gestures. Some compositions settle into quiet, suspended fragments, while others expand outward through sharper colors or bolder abstraction. This interplay creates a field of reflection in which memory, perception, and material process continuously shape one another. United by a language of emergence—layers rising and dissolving in dialogue—the works form a quiet archive of moments that hover between clarity and blur, inviting viewers into an open space of interpretation.
