Prisoners (New Abstract Artwork from Gaya)
Prisoners is a new dystopian abstract artwork created by Gaya.
In the darkest dungeons of the human soul, in a somber destiny of human nature, hopelessly caged to the very last moment with a weak and gleaming light of an apparent path to the only exit, there are prisoners somewhere or everywhere… The prisoners of promise or prisoners of conscience or prisoners of dream? The hostages of ancient customs, memories or modern world that we created with utmost vigor but without any thought… The prisoners, and who they are, and are they us?
The painting is a work of art created on the intersection of the socio-political concept and the spiritual-philosophical context in the genre of abstract expressionism. The artwork is open to interpretations and free for introspection.

Creation through the abstract art is the sublime freedom to express oneself. To be an artist means to Gaya to gain that ultimate and sought-after freedom. With the power of colour, she captures the beauty of landscapes, light refractions, mysterious fluctuations of water, texture of flowers, and deviational patterns of a moving form.
Prisoners represents Gaya’s art philosophy. The common theme of her creation is artist’s abstractive reflection on, and interpretation of, the natural world and phenomena, emotional states as well as socio-philosophical reflections on our lives as fragmented as wholesome they are. The paintings include natural environments and objects, single elements of natural phenomena and geographical ambiance, panoramic view, and wildlife. Prisoners explores surreal realities of our nowadays world in the context of social, political and philosophical reflection on the values and ideas that drive the mankind towards its logical conclusion. A dystopian fantasy, the work reaches out to the individual conscience and attitudes of the viewers with a call for a thought about important intransigent things that we care about most. Strong elements of sensual expressionism are also present in this specific spiritual and philosophic work filled in with irrational subjectivism elements. This visionary artwork is open for interpretations.
