ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Attempt to reach the light is a mosaic made with the special technique of hand-cut mosaic tiles places on a wooden board adding the peculiarity of the use of the gaps as lines. The work is about the attempt of Human beings to reach harmony, god, heaven, "the Light". We all desire to reach a stage of inner peace which we all have at some point in our lives, but the aim is much higher, and it calls for constant, infinite peace. This work shows many hands trying to reach the center which is the point of light, the heaven where we will all end up one day. This artwork is round.

Riccardo Matlakas is a London/Germany/New York based multidisciplinary artist working internationally. He is best known for his multi-talented capacity in different art forms including performance, dance, painting and sculpture. He obtained a degree in Sculpture at the University of Fine Arts in Naples and an MA in Social Sculpture at Oxford Brookes University. Riccardo values the context he works in as the main inspiration for his work, finding a common ground with each culture he connects with. He creates cathartic actions and performances in the fore-front of current political, environmental and spiritual concerns by digging for the essence of humanity beyond race and custom. The artist often collects relics from his performances which later become objects of memory and contemplation. Riccardo Matlakas has performed and shown his work extensively in Europe, Russia, Ukraine, Turkey, Palestine, Jordan, South Africa, Iran, Armenia, Russia, Myanmar, Mauritius and South Korea.
