Interviews
Grand Interview
Your innovative approach to exploring human transformation in Trinity Digital Painting beautifully merges biological, emotional, and mental aspects - could you elaborate on how you developed this intricate visual narrative?
I’ve always been drawn to exploring the essence of truth, the root of things. Trinity wasn’t planned—it emerged naturally through trial and error. I wanted to explore the human psyche as it is, not as I think it should be. This process led me to create a map that reflects the obstacles and challenges to human growth.
The striking progression from bottom to top in Trinity Digital Painting seems to mirror personal growth stages - what inspired you to structure the visual journey in this particular way to represent human development?
I wanted to capture spiritual growth in a way that feels universal to everyone—much like a hero's journey, but encompassing all aspects of the human experience. My goal was to transform these mental images into a visual map, making complex philosophical ideas more accessible and easier for people to understand.
Trinity Digital Painting addresses complex themes of gender roles and societal conditioning - how did your research into historical human society values influence your artistic decisions in portraying these concepts?
I sought freedom and liberation from the belief system I was raised with, so I had to first understand, practice, and test these teachings in order to eventually overcome and learn from them. I immersed myself in a series of challenges, carefully analyzing my beliefs to uncover which ideas stemmed from which belief systems. This exploration influenced Trinity, where the lower part of the painting represents 'bubbles of opinion,' examining which lineage they correspond to—feminine or masculine—and ultimately leaving these opinions or states.

- Production Technology
- Base sketch was a pencil drawing that was further developed in "Photoshop" by using "Wacom" graphics tablet. Finished artwork was done by use of regular paintbrushes, filters, layer styles and effects with stylized changes. Process of making was experimental progressive painting without a clear motive in mind.
- Design Challenge
- The challenge was to improvise while keeping the technical part and the structure of the image meaningful without knowing the outcome. This kind of experimentation was mentally intensive and time-consuming. The artist overcame the obstacle by switching between abstraction and rational.
- Research
- Human society has set values in the past to make clear distinction of man and woman roles in society. These roles were initially set by practicality through order. The artist tries to convey the message that, whilst this approach may have been practical in the past, it may cause fragmentation in the mind of humans. Humans suppressed the feminine or masculine part of their beings and restrained themselves from reaching full potential of their mind.
- Inspiration
- Inspiration came from the artists exploration of unconditional Love and nonattachment towards living beings and their environment. Accepting the world as one continuous process with all its faults and imperfections.
- Project Duration
- The project started from May 2015 and finished in August 2015. The design is done in Zagreb, and was exhibited in Psychedelic Dream Temple Gallery August 2017.
- Operation Flow
- The artwork is arranged in a linear way from bottom to top. The information presented to the public has three points: 1. Realization of the negative aspects of society 2. Acknowledgement of their own ancestral legacy 3. Growth and its own responsibility in the universe by expanding to the unknown.
