A textured painting with sculptural, high-relief qualities, created and sold by the artist. It is made using a unique technique that harnesses the weight and physics of paint-soaked fabric, resulting in organic, naturally formed textures. It is created on an 18 mm thick blockboard, ensuring structural stability, resistance to warping, and long-term preservation. The artwork "ALIVE" is put on auction after the artists fourth solo exhibition "The Weight of Paint" in Wester Bank exhibition hall. Arturs Dimiters is a multidisciplinary artist, coming from Skulme artists dynasty, who have been professional artist in four generations. He has developed a unique technique of showing real motion texture by a fabric and paint combination, creating unique patterns of natural phenomena. Curator Inga Šteimane on Arturs Dimiters’ works in the exhibition “My Family" “Arturs Dimiters’ technique can be described as an avant-garde use of the components of painting - canvas, paint, the picture’s rectangle, and a conceptualized stroke or splash created by throwing a piece of fabric into paint poured onto the painting’s surface. This gives his works an expressionist character and brings to mind the Vienna Actionists, Robert Rauschenberg, or the neo-Dadaist language of Fluxus, as well as Dzemma Skulme’s modern approach to colors, surfaces, and found objects. The images are polymorphic and feel at home in the postmodern space with numerous references to various cultures, without sorting them either chronologically or by status. For example, the “natural” aesthetic texture of the fabric soaked in color is associatively comparable to ancient marbles or classical sculptures. “Airiness” and “subtlety” in the colors seem ambient. Meanwhile, the artist’s suggestions to notice faces and figures in the works resonate with the familiar act of daydreaming while gazing at clouds, the roughness of walls, or the play of shadows. Contemporary animation featuring communities of animals and fantastical creatures is yet another cultural space inhabited by Arturs Dimiters’ “Family.”
