HAVE YOU CONSIDERED HOW SIMILAR THE SOUL OF THE SEA AND THAT OF A WOMAN IS?
Aili Vint: My concept is to create a perception of a new reality, onIe that is not actually real and not perceivable to the eye. It is intended to be a story of the Sea as a living entity. I feel, therefore, that my three "genres" (marine paintings, guash paintings and sensual graphics) should be displayed with equal emphasis. Then it will be possible to experience the exhibit like a story, about the soul of the Sea. Even a novel, which the pictures all together tell about unbearable powerful beauty of the quintessential nature. Then it is possible to experience each exhibit as a story of marine life, what my pics talk about when they get together.
through those images I tell the story of the sensuality of the Sea
Aili Vint: When contemplating the sensuousness of nature as expressed in the Sea's psyche, one can see the invisible connect between nature and our senses. Therefore, there is a subtle between my seascapes, my sensual abstracts, depictions of the female form. Through those images I tell the story of the sensuality of the Sea.
THE SOUL OF THE SEA
Aili Vint: I am the woman, who has hopelessly fallen in love the Sea. How does one paint a portrait of ones secret love? — As I start seeing the details that fascinate me in a given mood of the Sea, they are gone in the next moment.
I paint the Sea until I find his Soul. At first glance, meeting the Sea and its mood, the Soul cannot be seen until it shows its true face while painting. I won't release any of my marine paintings from the studio until he has become dear to me..Then I have found the Soul of the Sea and drawing it on paper.This is why I do not want to separate them. The Sea and its Soul belong together like the Sea and the Wind.
