Jiří Černický's painting Sun Shine from 2017 belongs to a series of paintings
inspired by scifi movies in which the universe fights to save lives
on the Earth. Works intended for the future, as a fictional commission for space
ship or technocratic dehumanized architecture, refers to the dystopian
visions of the demise of the world while ironically commenting on that in the future by hand
painted paintings will disappear. Abstract images formed by organic
structure of visual information, organized on the desktop, refer
used materials and items to the instrument panel. Reflective radiant
color on the surface of the image structure resembles the pulsating surface of the Sun,
to which the spaceship is headed. However, the main events of the image do not take place
on its surface, but on the edge, they point out of the space of the image.
Jiří Černický has been researching and shifting the medium of painting for a long time in his work
its boundaries towards the object and space. The material of the painting can
be practically anything, from toothbrushes, earphones, levers from
faucets and other fragments of civilization objects that are
incorporated into the mass of the image and co-creates its compositional, color
and material structure. The objects that Černický composes into paintings
they lose their original meaning and purpose. They are present in it
material form, but within the image they represent a new visual
information. Unnecessary, broken and discarded objects are received in paintings
the role of relics of our civilization, which are embedded in the body of the painting and instead of the brush
with color shapes its appearance and character.
Intermedia work of Jiří Černický, using the possibilities of new ones
technology, ranges from performance, video, staged photography,
to the object, installations and painting. Various media, among which you author
deliberately arbitrarily chooses, they are a means of uncovering social
taboo and political themes, but also a game with traditional symbols that
nowadays they overlap, layer and rewrite compared to theirs
traditional meaning.
