Description

"St. Margarethen 1" merges the natural landscape of the quarries of St. Margarethen with deep mythological and literary symbolism. The reference to Ovid's work, alluded to in the Glagolitic characters below, lends the painting a timeless dimension. The figurative allusions seem to be born out of the stone, as if they were moulded by nature and history. The golden and ochre tones reflect warmth and the earth, while the blue sky conveys a spiritual lightness and transcendence. The Glagolitic script at the bottom is a reminder of cultural depth and the connection between past and present.
