Tonko Smokvina: The Untamed Image
The artworks of the Dubrovnik-based artist Tonko Smokvina resist their definitionby avoiding the final explanation of their compositional principles, not allowingthe hand and mind to tame them with a rational way of thinking. The imageswere created as a result of turbulent life events when the emotional part pre-vailed over the evolutionary weight of the mind directed towards rationalization.The original instincts and emotions arising from deep pain, nostalgia and anxietyare embodied in a chromatic eruption that completely occupies the entire surfaceof the painting where abstraction takes precedence by swallowing even hints offigures. Names of the paintings such as “Longing”, “Lust”, “Emotions”,“Awakening” reveal the impossibility of expressing the weight of feelings throughwords and attempts to explain by speech, but there is a need to translate andtransform those indescribable states of mind into a visual performance that takesplace in front of the viewer following uncontrollable lines fleeing from the spaceof the image, the struggle of complementary and non-complementary colors, theaspiration of figures to choose their clear form. The painter Tonko Smokvinastops this chromatic struggle and as a film cut he manages to freeze the momentof eruption by taking on the documentary value of the process of human con-sciousness.
