CONCORDIA LIKOVNA RADIONICA
Mentor and art workshop facilitater SMILJANA LUKIĆ has also contributed to
this exhebition with some of her characteristic artistic works.
From everything exhibited here it can be indicated that her enthusiasm and
indisputable talent is manifestated in the best way and reflected in her own
works as well as in the artistic creations of the children.
Smiljana`s creative energy is based on art, on an effective logical
stringing of symbols and artistic observations.
With her studious plunging into the essence and a patient studying of the
themes and problems of the human being in and out of the space and time, she
has created a number of artistic creations which monopolise our attention
with their intriguing.
To sum up, she has renovated the sense and the meaning of hope which has
been corroded by both human and time calamities. Her colours are objective
and realistic and her ideas are shrewed and reasoned.
These skillfully constructed creative ideas hold our attention regardless of
the dark vocals or suppressed tonality they emit.
With her unambiguous intentions she has purpesefully provoked the
introverted nature, unused to the creative dimensions of genuine, human, and
friendly expression.
Her loud observations and coherant comments should in the end provoke our
desire to support her in these positivistic and profoundly human patterns
but also to endorse her in these affirmative and profoundly human attitudes
and in the same time more courageously accept our own long supressed ray of
youthful (juvenille) ecstasy which basically perpetuates and leads us.
Although life and its closest environment is very insecure, it is important
to conclude that the answer is in movement and the exit is in creation.
This is what her visual messages very successfully witness.
LIFE ALWASY WINS
How to overcome a day, a bleak life, scars of time, wounds on the soul?
The professional, the level-headed, the experienced advocate louder and
louder a creative and active engagement in art workshops.
This exhebition, multiply important and essential, indicates that the
children of the fallen and wounded defenders in Homeland War have tried to
overcome but what is more important have succeded in traspassing tragic
reminiscences and suffocated emotions.
We find many signals of spontaneity, sincerity and symbolism on their
artistic works.
Indicative is a picture of an obscure atmosphere and of grey ominous
clouds.
The bridge , a symbol of connecting people, collapses into the river, more
sorrowful, darker and troubled.
In the distance, on the other bank, blazing flames devour the houses,
trees, lives...
And on this side there are people turned towards the river , towards their
homes which they were forced to leave.
Their eyes, full of bitterness, are focused on the past of idilic
reminescences.. Everything in front of them brutally and irretrievably
immerses into ephemerality .
After such pernicious destiny they can hardly gain any strength to go
forward...
Only one distorted face of a girl, wrapped in a scarf, directed towards us.
We can read pain, despair, scream on it. This face has everybody`s age
except its. It is a pleading cry. A cry for help. Soundless.
Without an echo?
The evil was commited by a human/monster, imbued by hatered and cruelty.
How to restore trust in men and people after all that?
The answer is in faith, in hope, in love.
To destruction and demolition we should answer with creation.
As much as pessimistic we might be, the only choice is the light of life.
Therefore these depressed children- flowers with with their heads bowed and
children generally should be systematically encouraged to open even more and
to follow their inner
creative impulse.
They truly deserve more flying, larger wings of noninhibition.
There are already glimpses of sensibility and noninhibited flickering fluid
i in their works.
In this obviously idyllic attmosphere of the reasons for living there is
their readiness to follow the faith in tomorrow.
An emphasized impression- this flippant colouring of an optimistic
enthusiasm that spreads across the pictures and calls for joy.
Spring on their windows /works/ is already here.Help. Open it. Together.
Because life always wins.
