Universal Dynamics
Rina BakisUniversal Dynamics
We are delighted to produce this exhibition of Rina's work. I met Rina in a fortuitous encounter, and I was bewitched by the beauty and strength of her work. It is full of colour and movement, sometimes explosive and sometimes gentle, like a warm summer wind.
Through her work, Rina talks to us about buildings and climate change, and sometimes about nature, lakes, trees, and dreams of happiness.
Colour is essential in her work; combined with completely abstract shapes that somehow reflect natural forms, she tells us magical stories of dreams and desires.
I cordially invite the viewer to explore this magical world and be amazed as I was.
Gabriel Alvarez Artelectrico LimitedRina Bakis
Rina Bakis was born in Istanbul and lived in Israel and South Africa before moving to London. Her journey into a few more countries has given her a unique perspective and influenced her art. She studied graphic design and architectural technician, which contributed to her understanding of form, colour, and structure, which are all essential elements in her transition from figurative to geometric and then to complete abstract art. Such an evolution was a continual search for new modes of expression and a willingness to explore different artistic styles. Art revolves around the exploration and expression of_
energy through the dynamic power of colours.
Having lived in many countries around the world and studying graphic design and architectural technician degree influenced her understanding of form, space, and composition by giving her work a unique perspective.
Rina’s paintings reflect her background and its profound connection to the ever-changing tapestry of life which captures the energy of nature, harnessing the play of light and colours.
Universal Dynamics
It is about optimism and how I see every new day. I want to show vibrant gardens coming to life with morning lights, blooming flowers, and sunlight piercing through trees, illuminating the woodland floor.
I painted “universal dynamics” because I was motivated to explore and express the Physical principles of universal motion, energy, and cosmic phenomena.
