Using geometric surfaces and the chosen perspective, the artist Igor Taritaš purposefully builds up the space until a three-dimensional surface and interaction is created. Scraping, expressive paint drops and dirty surfaces create the illusion of a real, energy-laden space. 

 

This space is the central aspect in Igor Taritaš' works. For the artist it means not only the physical space. Rather, he describes space as a multidimensional entity that makes life on our planet possible, that influences our own actions as spiritual beings with the energy inherent in a space. The space we are talking about here is not just a physical area and an air, but it is the whole vastness and dimension of reality in which we move and have our being.

 

Igor Taritaš creates mainly empty urban spaces with surreal and melancholic atmosphere. Using perspective and geometric surfaces, the artist gradually builds images that create a superficial and three-dimensional interaction. The interiors are freed from non-essential elements.

 

Igor Taritaš was born in 1987 Pakrac, Croatia and lives and works in Zagreb, where he also graduated from the Academy of Arts.
