The unknown adventure

"The development of a painting; the diverse images, colours and  speckles coming together and not knowing what will come out of this work in the end, is an unknown adventure.

Contrasts like Thought- Expression, Anxiety- Doubt, Affection- Happiness push themselves into the subconscious mind and take their places on the canvas in an unknown and unpredicted manner.

Besides them there are subconscious thoughts and traumas, pushing, yet unwanted in the conscious mind; these are subjects that have to be faced bravely in psychological and psychoanalytic sessions.

Even if late, traumas have to be faced. With my figures I try to describe a world, where the human anatomy- deformed, missing limbs, yet sportive- is not obstructed in its movement, where the handicapped is not handicapped…" says Hatice Önal.
