Original artwork description:

Eternity Written in Mist – August 20, 2025
(from the series “Kafkian Eternity with Flowers at 7 PM”)

With this new chapter in the ongoing series “Kafkian Eternity with Flowers at 7 PM,” Ovidiu Kloska turns the lens inward, away from visible ruins and into a more vaporous, dream-infused dimension. “Eternity Written in Mist” does not document a specific place, but rather a state of perception — a landscape of memory before it solidifies into matter. It is a visual poem in which form, time, and translucency weave together like whispered thoughts dissolving into green air.

The bouquet no longer rises from industrial remains or corroded walls, but from a more subtle terrain: a liminal garden built of breath, reverberation, and half-remembered visions. The flowers appear not as objects but as apparitions — blurred inscriptions of something that never fully came into being, yet refuses to disappear.

Here, the Kafkaesque quality emerges not through alienation or decay, but through the strangeness of fragile persistence. The composition seems to record the slow blooming of memory itself — memory not as nostalgia, but as a generative force. The petals, leaves, and spectral stems are written into the surface like a palimpsest: traces of what was almost lived, nearly felt, silently dreamed.

The palette is quieter than before: veils of misted green, smoky violet, desaturated white, and echoes of black. It no longer speaks of rust or erosion, but of condensation — the way humidity gathers on glass, or how thought gathers on silence. The textures are less architectural and more atmospheric, like the skin of a dream or the residue of a vanished season.

“7 PM” remains present — not as a chronological hour, but as a metaphysical hinge, a point when day and night overlap and reality becomes porous. In this moment, the flowers become metaphors for that fragile zone where things neither fully exist nor vanish — where eternity is not a monument, but a soft oscillation.

In “Eternity Written in Mist”, Kloska transforms absence into a fertile space. The bouquet becomes a breathing archive of all that remains unspoken, unborn, unresolved — yet luminous in its ambiguity. This is a painting about the power of things that almost exist, and the subtle way they shape what is.

Sometimes, eternity is not carved in stone, but written in mist. And sometimes, flowers bloom not in gardens, but in the memory of gardens that never were.

Constantly fascinated, this dynamism of shape opens up in a unique way, by projecting a way of mind, a mind performance with neurological circuits. This is my magic eye.I believe that by uniqueness begins with the very capacity of inventing universe out of things shattered by time, things that have changed into ephemerity. There are hours that I spend staring at the mud, at the wrinkles of the trees, at the rust of walls damaged by time. It is an exercise that everybody should make. It means worming the spirit, getting in touch with the sublime. I am connected to silence and endless time during the short chat between things. Sublime. Esoteric. And the nigh, that cold, fascinating light that makes things change their meaning, driven by an inner tremble that is known from a previous moment, fluttering through images.

/ My visual relates with spirituality, dreams, unconsciousness, delirium, hallucination, with the change of shape and light, with the spontaneous, illusion, abnormal and normal, bizarre and wear. I was born in Romania, Neamt district,in a small town in N E of Romania at 27 of july 1977. In 2000 I graduated the Technical University Gheorghe Asachi from Iasi, Romania, Faculty of Electronics and Telecommunication. In 2009 I graduated master classes at George Enescu Art University from Iasi, Faculty of Fine Arts with the project Urban wear oniric interferences object of art. I Live and create in Focsani, Vrancea district from Romania /
