LIFE CAROUSEL

Oil on canvas
30 x 40 cm

With this painting, I wanted to link the symbolism of carousel with the tree of life.

In a religion, tree of life represents the knowledge that connects the underworld with heaven. For the old Slavs, it was a symbol of a beginning.
On the other hand, I see carousel as a life cycle in which, from a light swing, we rise to the zenith of strength and then slowly slow down until the legs again touch the ground. However, what is the biggest and most beautiful secret is the human spirit that can always stay at its heights.

Ovom slikom sam želeo da povežem simboliku ringišpila sa drvetom života. U religiji drvo predstavlja znanje koje povezuje zemaljsko sa nebesima. Kod starih Slovena ono je bilo simbol prapočetka. Oni su verovali da nakon smrti njihove duše odlaze u stablo i tamo prebivaju ostatak vremena.
Sa druge strane, ringišpil vidim kao životni ciklus u kome se od laganog ljuljanja uzdižemo do zenita snage a potom usporavamo dok noge opet ne dotaknu zemlju. Ipak, ono što je najveća i najlepša tajna je ljudski duh koji uz puno truda i posvećenja može uvek ostati u visinama.
