Original artwork description:

The Tree - Singularity
Ovidiu Kloska, 2025
Series: Beyond the Inside
Oil on Canvas, 100 x 80 cm

There are forms in the universe that defy replication. The tree, as seen through Kloska’s vision, is not a mere botanical entity—it is an echo of something primordial, a lingering vibration of an intention far older than the world itself. It stands, not simply as a living structure of roots and branches, but as a rupture in the veil of time, a singularity where matter and spirit intertwine, where the seen dissolves into the unseen.

In The Tree - Singularity, the physical realm falters, giving way to a space where light and memory coalesce. This is not the depiction of a solitary tree in a misty landscape, but rather the imprint of a presence on the fabric of existence itself. It is a moment caught between becoming and vanishing, where the air thickens with forgotten whispers, and color ceases to be pigment, transforming instead into a form of spectral energy.

The textures of the canvas shimmer with alchemical intent—pigment fractures, gold bleeds through the void, and shapes emerge only to retreat again, like thoughts on the edge of consciousness. The atmosphere is dense yet ephemeral, filled with an aching presence, as if the tree itself is a vessel for unspoken truths, absorbing and reflecting the ineffable.

Kloska’s tree does not merely exist—it resonates. It pulses with the weight of time, carrying the stories of the unseen, the voices of those who once stood in its shadow. It is both guardian and guide, a silent monolith of memory, a cosmic axis binding the fleeting and the eternal. Here, in this liminal space, where matter dissolves into mist and light fractures into reverie, we are faced with something beyond mere perception. We are confronted with a question:

What remains of us when time withdraws?

Perhaps, like the tree, we are singularities—fractals of energy suspended between the known and the unknowable, existing not as fixed forms, but as lingering traces in the great, unfathomable flow.

In this painting, Kloska does not simply depict a landscape—he opens a portal. And through it, we glimpse something vast, something just beyond the inside.
