Sleepwalker

Maya Kulenovic... Sleepwalker (2005, oil on canvas). From Maya Kulenovic: Paintings. "...Most of my works bear some reference to war, mortality and fragility of culture. The extreme experiences of war and genocide, as collective madness, evoke an element of chaos and transform our collective consciousness, bringing out both its creative and destructive elements. I think of my paintings as investigations into the unreliable nature of safety, possessions and knowledge - and the search for spirituality of some sort, as a promise of compassion."
