Ondřej Basjuk

Basjuk's personal fascination with the art of the Far East strongly resonates in his work. Based on complex and profound analysis, his art draws on his deep knowledge of the philosophy of visual representation in that part of the world as well as on his extensive knowledge of philosophy and cultural history in general. Basjuk’s meditative paintings aim at a harmonious interweaving of the spiritual world with the world of perception. The appeal of the author’s work stems from a synthesis of a sovereign graphic expression, demonstrated through a largely monochromatic colour palette, with a socially critical message, frequently hidden in his works.
