Living in era of the virtual, of media fatigue and visual overflow, we start to see real value in things that are asking for their own place and time. In my line of work, I conduct research on abstract painting. This kind of painting is challenging the viewers to slow down and use their own imagination. There is a moment when it expands into space and creates environment, in which the viewers eventually become a part of the art piece.
