ILKO

Painter of Light
Experts place ILKO in the category of Neo-Romanticism, drawing on Impressionist and Symbolist painting. What can we expect and find in his art? Most viewers of the paintings call it "a caress to the soul". When we ask how this feeling arises, we find that it is mainly due to the colours, their perfect harmony. ILKO mixes colours with unprecedented sensitivity and the result is perfect for the eye, therefore very pleasing. The technique of painting, the brush and spatula strokes, the throwing of the colours, are also pleasing to the eye. The paintings are mostly illuminated and the light shines through them very naturally, in the intentions of the sun's rays and the spiritual light.
ILKO is a philosopher and a man of faith, light in his concept is the carrier of life, love, goodness and truth. However, despite the harmony, his paintings are provocative and thought-provoking. This way of working is most suited to natural themes, landscapes as states of mind, but also urban corners, figurative paintings, still lifes and portraits. However, ILKO has other faces, and therefore his art has many forms. He is as confident in abstraction and surrealism as he is in Neo-Romanticism.
