A Mirror Image

Storytelling is probably one of the oldest and most widespread oral traditions in every culture. Not many other things can match the complexities offered by fairytales. They keep us company from early childhood when they serve as a learning tool all the way to our old age when we hand their wisdom and morale down to our grandchildren. We often create stories and fictional images in our minds.

Karol Felix — Following the light

Karol Felix’s art is miscellaneous, just like his themes and expression language. It is a story of an artist following his light. Honestly, patiently, gracefully. It is open to communication, but does not take into account the viewer’s taste. It rejects nonchalance, endless repetition of established patterns and riding on previous accomplishments. Which is one of the things that makes it true.
