Fedor Deichmann
Fedor Deichmann’s art is more about visceral expression or psychological processing than self-conscious imitation or intentional illustration. Through an unconscious, almost aimless, painting process – sometimes not knowing how fragmented bits of colour will integrate into figuration – Fedor’s work uncovers aesthetic unity and produces a genuine sense of well-being.
His work explores both abstract expressionism and figurative impressionism. But these two styles serve each other; it is limiting to separate the genres. He uses abstract language to paint figuration, and the figurative form serves his abstract language, rather than the other way around.
Individual forms in the painting, a surface experience for the viewer, are secondary to the painting’s universe or cosmos. Details are carefully chosen yet rarely provide a clear, easily comprehensible narrative. Fedor embraces open-ended interpretation and enjoys making art with multiple viewpoints. Although his paintings often echo other paintings, this is not simple imitation but a dialogue with the past, giving it a present voice.
