Artist Statement:
I am not rigid author stuck in
my tried and true manner of
expression. My interests
branched from painting into
video and vice versa, because
I am exploring the gesture of
representation with different
“lens.”While I work in a range
of painting and video, the
common thread connecting them
is light. Using video and
painting, I abstract light and
shadow into sublimation. I am
finding the way to modernize
and rename the formal
cognitions of modernism into
completely different
constellations of meaning.
My research on perception and
the use of light lead to still
and moving image spaces where
the shades and highlights of
colors, blended into each
other, create the
monochromatic visual effect
thus provoking an impression
on the observer. Working
between those limits and kind
of pointing them out is
something I enjoy doing
because it’s not just the fact
that you are bringing the
cosmos down into the space
where you live, but that your
perception helps create that
as well....

| Your Personal Biography |
Theory of Analytical Psychology influenced the development of his art from 1999 to 2001. He went to New York where he attained the contemporary views and reflections in fine art. Miran’s works often focus on painting and video and the common thread connecting them is light. From 2002 to 2003 he lived in Amsterdam where the central, though not exclusive theme of Kres's work has been an exploration of physiological effects that color and light have on the observer. He has been included in The Young Artists’ Biennial in Bucharest and was one of Slovenian nominee for Henkel CEE Art Award for Modern Drawing in 2005. His work has been the subject of worldwide exhibitions and video festivals. Recently, Kres has exhibited at the Slovenian Galleries and internationally. His paintings are also represented in both corporate and private collections.
