Paolo KOZMA - Blood on the dance floor

“Blood on the dance floor” was created during a live performance , in direct dialogue with theatrical script, the music of Rammstein, and the charged presence of an audience. The surface becomes a field of raw encounter, where gesture replaces deliberation and the body itself transforms into the primary instrument—the brush. What emerges is pure emotion—unfiltered, unrepeatable, and deeply physical. The painting stands as a unique imprint of a singular moment, where instinct, sound, and story converged through the artist’s body into an image of striking intensity and power. Vertical torrents of red dominate the composition, evoking both rupture and vitality, like a pulse made visible. These intense passages are intersected by darker, almost skeletal linear forms that suggest structure, tension, and the fragile architecture of the human condition. Earthy tones and fluid marks expand outward, grounding the piece while preserving its immediacy and unpredictability. There is a visceral sense of movement throughout—the traces of action are not concealed but emphasized. Drips, splashes, and abrupt directional shifts capture the rhythm of the performance, echoing the influence of music and narrative as they unfold in real time. The work resists refinement in favor of authenticity; it is not constructed, but released. As a performer artist with good skills contemporary dance, I start from my body as a brush. I treat painting as an unique live performative event. My paintings are large pure emotions in motion. * video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w5NK3Mmv0DE …………………….. The artwork will be shipped as a rolled, unstretched canvas for safe delivery. Packaged in tube box and wrapped properly. Rolled works can be easily stretched (for canvas works, i.e. placed onto wooden stretcher bars) and/or framed by a local framer upon arrival completely normal for rolled canvas. Minor waves or creases may be visible upon arrival, which is completely normal for rolled canvas. These will disappear once the canvas is stretched or framed by a professional framer. All my shipments will be made through DHL EXPRESS or a similar company, always trying to guarantee the safety, care and efficient delivery of the work. However, delays that may occur in the case of goods are beyond my control; I will always be attentive to tracking the shipment and any incident that may arise, being at the customer's disposal to provide appropriate assistance and support. Thank you for your appreciation!
