Undergraduate thesis focuses on the analysis of my own works created during my studies of painting, connecting them to the eternal question and the paradigm of beauty through the prism of the eternity mysticism.
The main purpose of the thesis is to demonstrate the integration of academic approach of studio work in the process of self-critical evaluation based on art theory, providing answers to theoretical and practical questions, which arise from the work process.
Comparison of my own works with the works of authors who influenced and shaped my artistic expression, and the analysis of their interpretation in terms of the search for beauty leads me to break down the structure of my own creation, guides me through inner feelings and thoughts, and gives my work form and meaning.
The thesis aims to promote issues of difficulty and complexity in painting and to understand how past knowledge, theories and philosophy can help and guide us. The thesis also aims to demonstrate how the before mentioned issues are integrated within painting and related arts and intertwined with modern trends in relation to aesthetic ideals such as beauty and its essence on canvas.
