Reflections At Dusk
Nadav Parazenchevski (FineArc)
Semi-constrained Lichtenberg figures on scavenged and upcycled wood, textile pigment dyed, fractal-edged and finished in matt varnish. A striking engraved work on wood, this piece transforms a branching fissure into a poetic landscape-like presence. Rich orange, yellow and green-gray fields meet in a vertical composition where scorched, vein-like lines create both movement and stillness, revealing the tactile beauty of the material and the artist’s sensitive control of surface and depth. Like “Lonely Tree”, reflections are a recurring theme for emotional, technical and aesthetic reasons. This one is an exploration of wind, affected by grain-diagonal framing. The piece was loaned to the Nola Socks pub in Haifa, where it choked on alcohol fumes and smoke for years as It achieved its degree in construction engineering from the Technion, couldn't find a job as one, and kept on busing tables well into her 30's.

An autodidactic research artist developing a unique artistic medium based on the Lichtenberg Figures phenomena - fractal dielectric breaking of materials in high voltage current. In his work he turns electric resistance into a brush and creates a complex dialogue between the raw forces of nature and the human capacity to instill intention and meaning, a perception formed along a decade of experimentation and inspired by his experience in dog training and preschool education - to form a framework of boundaries allowing freedom within. The method's evolution focuses on the interactions between control and submission, wherein from year to year, he moves from enforcing his will on the material into listening to it, thus tempting them into forging images, textures and shapes involving scientific, natural and narrative contents, from the resolution of the sub atomic to the cognitive, using scavenged materials, while evolving the technique to a rich, high contrast and vibrant visual language Http://FineArt.Art
