Introduction Words of the Artist I chose to paint scenes of the Bible because of the human situations full of feelings and instincts, the struggles of strength and survival; the struggle between right and wrong, between the moral and the immoral; because of all the passions that dominate the human being and its reactions to them. The Bible is an endless source of inspiration for artists as the conflicts therein turn it into an always up to date book, despite changing generations. Along history, plastic artists have depicted biblical scenes due to the mentioned reasons; every artist brought his/her own interpretation that usually was in accordance with the prevailing ideas of his/her time. The language of modern art in the 20th century is one of distortion that emphasizes certain elements which, according to the artist, are important, diminishing the value of other ones. The artist's message is transmitted by means of the accurate drawing so the spectator receives the picture's elements in a clear manner and can concentrate in the picture's content. In surrealism, the figure is delineated perfectly and describes the absurdity of how extreme points are linked in dreams. In other words, although the image is apparently illogical, in fact it's very far from being absurd. The strong colours form a harmony that rarely corresponds to the subject matter. In my view the colours are meant to melt into one general esthetical framework. This is my interpretation of my artistic work here displayed from a conscious point of view since the subconscious meaning of said work is unknown to me.
