About Jan
"A hundred-year-old piano placed in my childhood room developed a strong sense for harmony in me and apparently started my longing for art. Today, the main driver for my own creations is the fight between harmony and chaos, the search for the ultimate equilibrium."

Thought Fragments (Self-portrait)

This oil painting, also known as "Mind Reader", executed in signature Geometric Deconstruction style, offers a compelling fusion of abstraction and figurative form.

The artwork is characterized by the interplay of sharp lines, intersecting planes, and arcs, creating a fragmented yet harmonious representation of the author's face.The central motif—a single, piercing eye framed by angular and curvilinear elements forming face—evokes a sense of introspection and layered identity. The use of contrasting warm ochres and deep blues suggests a duality, reflecting the coexistence of light and shadow within the self. The stark black background further enhances the tension and focus on the central figure, drawing the viewer into its enigmatic gaze.

The title reflects both the artist's exploration of personal identity and the fragmented visual language emblematic of his Geometric Deconstruction manifesto.
