Patient indifference


As an inspiration for this series was staying in the forest areas, which were witnesses to tragic occurrences. Former death camps, group burial places, Lemkos villages, which people were killed. On all this grounds, the nature is slowly entering with covering vestiges power. In sunny, august day, the forest sounds so beautiful, and I am on the horns of a dilemma, aware of the history of those places. Endless beauty of nature leads mind astray but sight of innocent wall rests or rotten, wood cross commands to come back down to earth. I can not paint clouds thinking of Sobibór. Then again trees tempt to loose yourself in the happiness of life. Discrepancy is painful – ever grass prick heavier.
