Journeys of the mind

Here I want to share with you some of my paintings ( version in tempera technique ).Thanks for your attention, my friends !
I was always fascinated by cosmology and modern physics, I have my favorite collection of books by Georg Gamow with his mister Tompkins, a few books of Niels Bohr, Robert Penrose, Michio Kaku, popularization of Einstein's theory, Arthur C.Clarke, Philip Dick, also Polish fantasy of Stanisław Lem and, of course, several books from S.Hawking. Among the film collections, I particularly value "Space Odyssey" of Stanley Kubrick. These interests accompanied my artistic search, when I created a series of works on optical illusions. This is how I met M.C.Escher and the many illussions in the paintings of S.Dali and late artists from the circle of op-art like G. Vasarely or J. Albers. And all this was created without computers!;-) Art and science - inspirations and influences! People like S.Hawking kindled the imagination and, what is equally important, they gave hope that it's worth using and cultivating even a fraction of our abilities. We still have such people around us:

Then I guess you have not seen art by Finnish Kimmo Kaivanto. Make an image search with his name to discovered some of his works.

@ Belleuse - I don't meant that your works would not be unique. They are! I just see some similarity, both in technique and in ideas.

@Sami, thank you for your comment. I'm interested about all art, this is great discovering for me . His Blue Direct, 1990, Tampere House touch me , and I see similar thinking. And I saw his affinity to the blue color also :-) In his Biogenesis - inspirations from the science of course, because it was project for the company. Interesting and impressive works !
And I can add also : for many creators it's great (and depends on the type of their art), if they have the opportunity to go more into a large format or into a space. Implementation on a large scale or on objects that combine features of sculpture, painting and architecture (as in artworks of K.K.) allow us to express more! And I dreamed about it, although I never decided to cooperate with the industry and I haven't focus for artistic design.
But I'm still working with my ideas, some old and some new ideas. Thank you for your appreciation, my friend !

I use to say that "Space Odissey" was the best movie of my life. Your work is magnificent and Stephen Hawking couldn't have a better tribute.
