Bartos Saro is by conviction an abstract artist. He talks about his paintings as landscapes. Abstract landscapes painted by Bartos Saro refer to another field of art – to music. Music and painting are often linked by an abstract approach to the subject, presenting the subject indirectly. Rhythm, composition, tone, color, contrast, value or accents are used to communicate content indirectly. A painter or a musician creates their individual code with which they write down their intentions. Painters who create abstract art choose the means of expression that most accurately reflect their intentions. As an idea, what makes abstract paintings different is their lack of realistic presentation.

Abstract painting is still a popular trend in contemporary art. In interviews with Bartos Saro, questions are often asked: what does his painting depict? In the visual layer, they are lines, spots and points. Artists, including Bartos Saro, transfer their thoughts to paintings using abstract symbolism. In abstract landscapes painted by Bartos, the only reference to the landscape is a horizontal line that can be interpreted as a horizon.

In the artist’s intention, these signs are to present some topic, some problem – they are emotions, social considerations, philosophical concepts, problems of the modern world. As a rule, the author does not speak directly through his landscapes. Abstract landscapes, through the code used, are a record of emotions, experiences and thoughts. Each viewer of the picture can enter his individual world through it.
Bartos Saro uses sand in his paintings to emphasize the relationship between his art and nature. Rough, very sensual in nature, the paintings are unique in terms of the technique used and artistic forms. Nothing is accidental on them, although every form has been spilled. What appears to be accidental is a very controlled activity of the artist. That is why in everyone, from the first glance, you can see the idea and thought of the author.
