Artworks by Mladen Ilic

Painting is the vibration of the hand following my inner dialogue.

As a child, I realised that reality has many layers, that there is something sublime in play, that you create the world you live in - from thought to form - and that harmony is organised chaos.

My paintings are exploration of thoughts, feelings and ideas. I work intuitively, without sketches or references, allowing images to emerge from memory, faith and instinct.

Each work develops through a process of discovery. Layers are built, altered, covered and revealed until the painting reaches a point where it feels coherent with my inner world.
