ARON WIESENFELD - FILL IN THE REST OF THE STORY

"Life is so fragile, and death is always near" - says Aron. I think these words perfectly describe what you can see on his canvases.

Aron paintings are full of enigmatic scenes and cold, gloomy atmosphere which will cause you thrills. You can't get rid of an impression that behind each scene or painting there's a deeper metaphysical meaning. For example in most of his paintings there's a movement or exodus element. Characters are walking from somewhere to unknown destination and they are determined not to stop no matter what.

"Life is so fragile, and death is always near. That was part of the meaning from the title “Solstice” too — that there is death, but then there is rebirth, in a continuous cycle. I find it comforting to think about death that way, instead of as just an ending. In answer to the question, I think migrations typify that cyclical nature of life."
