About this artwork
This picture was one of the first works that initiated the ''Roll-Outs'', i.e. larger scale works that can be rolled up and rolled out easily, and hang much like a tapestry. In this picture I also started working with the MoFo, a morphed-hybrid figure, half ogre-man, half photo-making-machine. This composition was also ambitious, fusing imagery which previously figured in other works, but now placing it in a new enviroment. Funny enough, my…
production of Roll-Outs began while I was working in the smallest space I've ever used for a studio. I sometimes think this is why I began creating them: I was trying to beat the cramped space by making pictures that in reality were way too big for the given space . This picture was also the poster image for the first solo gallery show I had in Berlin.

Ivan Jovanovic oRSoF, a Serbian-Canadian painter, printmaker, and visual artist with a rich background in fine arts and filmmaking, thrives on the interplay between direct observation and inventive material application. He embraces an expressive, figurative style—infusing thick impasto, raw industrial materials, and found objects—using gestural techniques inspired by the likes of Van Gogh, Auerbach, and Kiefer. His works pulse with kinetic energy, capturing the vibrancy, turbulence, and contemplative depths of urban and natural landscapes, ultimately inviting the viewer to experience the raw, immediate power of artistic discovery.
