About the series
Short descriptionRoman Tolici's latest series, "NEW HOPE," unveils a profound exploration of societal rebirth and renewal. Within these captivating works, Tolici captures the essence of hope emerging from the remnants of an abandoned past.
In a departure from the conventional, characters and humans are deliberately portrayed as diminutive figures against the vast backdrop of the environment. The atmosphere within "NEW HOPE" exudes a palpable sense of hope, peace, and cohabitation, as if the bygone world itself plays a pivotal role in fostering this renewal.
Roman Tolici, known for his photographic realism infused with poetry and a surreal touch on everyday existence, once again channels his unique narrative force. The paintings in "NEW HOPE" read like intricate details from a monumental story addressing universal human questions and anxieties. Tolici's tender perception turns ordinary reflections of daily life into profound projections, encapsulating the essence of time, memory, and traces within his artistic lens.
