The large-format paintings from the PELOPSY series are a subversive record of very individual feelings – a kind of diary of emotions that Artur Kepili translates into the language of abstract form. The artist manipulates shapes, textures and colours, leading the viewer through a world full of ambiguity. The free play of form allows him to blur the boundaries between the background and the main motif – thus deceiving, provoking and deceiving the recipient’s perception. Elements of drawing intertwine with painting surfaces, creating stories marked by both anxiety and rhythmic order, which draw you into a multidimensional dialogue.
What distinguishes the PELOPSY series is not only the emotional depth, but also the format of the works themselves. Large-scale paintings are not just decoration – they become an integral part of the space, giving it a new dimension. Kepili’s large-format paintings dominate the interior, building tension and focusing attention, not allowing you to pass by indifferently. Their presence redefines the character of the room – whether it is a raw, modern gallery or a private interior with a minimalist character. The artist consciously uses scale to emphasize the expression and power of the message, creating works that actually interact with the space and its users.
In this approach, the PELOPSY series not only tells about the artist’s emotions, but also transforms the environment in which he finds himself. The paintings become a living organism – resonating with the environment, changing its atmosphere, entering into resonance with the people who are in this space. It is not only art to be viewed – it is art that happens, which has the power to influence the mood, rhythm and perception of space.
The relationship between abstract painting and modern interior design is particularly important in the context of this series. Contemporary spaces – often dominated by simplicity, economy of form and neutral colours – become the ideal background for Kepili’s bold, expressive compositions. Abstraction does not impose unambiguous interpretations, but opens up the field for individual reception, which harmonizes with the flexibility of modern arrangements. Thanks to this, the large-format paintings from the PELOPSY series not only harmonize with the modernist language of architecture, but also enrich it with an emotional and metaphysical layer. Entering into a relationship with the minimalist surroundings, they create a point of tension – a distinctive accent that emphasizes the identity of the interior and at the same time leaves space for reflection.
PELOPSY – this word sounds mysterious and ambiguous, provoking exploration and interpretation. In the context of Artur Kepili’s work, it does not refer directly to a specific character or place, but serves as a symbol – a key opening the space of internal experiences and abstract narratives.
PELOPSY is therefore not a specific story, but a cycle of visual associations, built on the tension between form and content, rhythm and chaos, emotion and structure. The name of the cycle becomes a catchphrase, an invitation to a world in which abstraction gains a voice, and the viewer’s perception becomes a co-creator of meaning. Large-format paintings only increase this message with their scale
In this approach, PELOPSY does not mean one thing – it means many things at once. It is an open concept, constantly transforming with the recipient, with space, with context. It is a conscious artistic device that not only titles the series, but also introduces the world of it: a world of intimate experiences, trance rhythms and disturbing harmonies.
