Petr Knösel (1982, Czech Republic), I live and work in Berlin.

Since I was a child I have always shown interest toward different ways of artistic expression, until when in 2011 I felt the need to bring painting into my every day life.

Spirituality has also been a constant presence in my approach to existence and it has had a strong impact on the development of my artistic work, as well as a direct connection with it.
I use painting as a medium for deep personal meditation; at the same time the evolution of the painting itself gets inspired by the meditative state in a continuous flow of interaction which enriches both practices.

Each final result is then a possible invitation for the observers to take some time to join this meditative process and intimately enrich it with their personal experience.

My preference for abstract shapes allows a deeper level of freedom and wholeness in my dynamic interaction between art and soul, which leads me to a very intense process of self discovery. It is as well a wider and more complete language that leaves space to the observer for self interpretation and free from categorization.
