It's Cocktail Day Again
Yes! It's time for another art cocktail, mixed by the art gallery this time, making my life easier this way. For the past few weeks I've been focusing on trading and creative works, so art has taken a back seat, and I'm not regretting my decision. This has been a long planned phase that I've been waiting for for so long and now that I got to live it, I'm enjoying every moment of it.
However, art is an important part of my life, it means relaxation, motivation in my creative work, so I will always make sure to dedicate some time to it, even if it's just looking back to previous gallery visits, in order to create a post and share my experience with you.
So here I am, sharing some photos I took last month, when I visited one of my favorite art gallery, where I'm a regular already. Anyway, let's get started. Let's see what the group of artist prepared for you this time.
Mana Bucur - Tousled
Most likely you have rarely seen me saying such things about art, in my posts, but I don't like this. It's interesting and innovative, if I can use this word, I appreciate the effort as well, but it's not for me, so let's move on.
Csaba Sánta - Fairies
Here I remember I had to find a good angle for several reasons. The two metal sculptures are unconventional, I know, but it increases their value in my opinion. Bringing something new, unseen or even unique is key in this area and these two statues definitely check the boxes in this regard.
Zsigmond Bálint - I Became A Child Of God, Persistence
Two photos with deep emotional meaning. Two couples, who lived their whole life together. Too bad I could not get a better shot, but I hope you can see why these photos are valuable.
István Makkai - Ladder To Being
The title could be a little strange as there's no way to translate it 100% accurately, there may be some meaning lost in translation as they say, but I hope you can see what it means. I love the idea of using bones as ladder steps. It's maybe a bit forced, but if you think of it, the human body is also built like that, one bone on top of the other.
Örs Rezi - Play Abstract
This was a bit unexpected, or I wasn't ready for it, but it made me thinking that pretty soon we're going to see more digital art and I'm not referring to digitally created artworks, but created to symbolize the digital world, with digital items, peripheral equipment needed to create art.
Attila Pokornyi - Shelter
Looks like a pod to me, but also like a shelter. Could have double meaning as after all, a pod is a shelter for the beans or whatever seeds the pod contains. It's a good one.
Gabriella Fábián - Springtime
And this was the winner for me this time. I'm drawn to drawings, graphics and lately drawings for children's books and this fits perfectly. I love it!
Drawing is next on my list. I used to draw when I joined Hive and the community here with the amazing artists we have motivated me quite a lot as I have no talent, but then my attention turned towards other things.
Anyway, this is it for today. I hope you like the artworks and maybe you have a favorite too. Let me know.

The right fairy is quite interesting, I like it
I also agree on the favorite, springtime wins without competition, from far it seems a childish draw, but from close you can see it's very well made, and by an artist
Ha!!! 😆 We agree again. What a surprise! I also love your picks.
Excellent cocktail, @erikah! I love your honesty in saying that not all art is for you; it makes your review much more real. The "Springtime" piece is also my favorite; it conveys so much peace.

Thank you @solorzanot. You know how it is? If you are at the exhibition, talking to the artist or the others, you say "it's interesting", as you can't say you don't like it, but this is my blog, so why not be honest, right?
Looks like "Springtime" is the winner.
Heart sculpture steals the show
Heart sculpture? Which one is that?
I love the latest piece; I think those drawings are wonderful, whether as illustrations or simply for colouring in. I also think they have a deeper meaning, like the part with the flower.
My second favourite piece is the staircase... each step of our being leads us to a new lesson. I love how it inspires me!🤗
The last artwork is the winner and it's a rightly earned win. I agree with you. The ladder is also great, if you have space for it.
I'm glad it inspires you, at least something good comes out of these posts.
I love works of art with a deeper meaning to be discovered! Thanks to you, what a lovely day!🤗
Art remains an incomprehensible mystery to me. ))
😂 Then it's time to start understanding it after all you've a photographer and photography is art too.
You’re absolutely right, but I’m still learning for now.
I actually have a question that’s directly related to this — what would you recommend I do?
While I was in Bangkok, I visited a modern art museum (though I’m not even completely sure that’s the exact name). I went through all 8 floors and took around 1,000 photos of artworks from artists all over the world.
I’d really like to share all of it. Even if I post only 30 photos at a time, that’s still at least 30 separate posts. But my main problem is different: I understand how to make the first post, but I’m not really sure what to talk about in the following ones.
I can’t properly evaluate the artistic value of the works, and making up deep meanings or analysis doesn’t feel right either. Maybe I should just write a small introduction for each post and then simply share 30–40 photos?
Of course, I’d divide them by style or theme so it wouldn’t feel like a random mix of everything. What do you think about that approach?
Don't over complicate it. So many on Hive think posts have to be academic level and this is why they use all kinds of tools then get caught and blacklisted.
Write about your experience. Write about what you like on that particular painting or whatever it is, how it makes you feel or you can even say you didn't like it, as I do when I don't.
In Photography lovers, writing text is not a requirement, but you still should as it's better to share your experience, not just dump the photos. What makes a post unique is what you don't find elsewhere, let that be your thoughts, your feelings or whatever you went through during the visit or what you felt after leaving.
I hope it makes sense and i really want to see your post. Maybe it's difficult to start, but trust me, it gets easier. No one is an expert in this field, some consider themselves artists, but only a few are, the rest is just ... (anyway, that's my opinion). Just be yourself, enjoy the journey and you'll learn to love it in a month or two.
In the meantime, I'm here whatever question you have. Art is important and only a few of us are posting about art.
Got it!
When there's an art episode, I'll let you know!
Thank you. 🙏
Please do and thank you.
