Teo Kiš roughly divided his perception of traditional art into abstraction and figuration. The young artist is interested in how he himself navigates this breakdown and how abstraction and figuration can cooperate. With pencil, graphite, and paint he realized several works with abstract elements that pour out of him while he draws, which he then combines with figurative motives. With that in mind, he titled the exhibition ‘Two Sides’.
