PROLOGUE BY ARTELECTRICO

Artelectrico is very proud to be able to exhibit Rina Bakis online and at The Coningsby Gallery, simultaneously. Both exhibitions display an abundance of exceptional-quality works.

In her online exhibition, Rina delves into the themes of buildings and climate change. At the Coningsby Gallery, she guides us through a landscape of nature's dreams, a world that is both captivating and haunting.

Rina expresses these dreams with colour and shapes with movement. There are cascades, splashes, dancers, flowers waving in the wind, all that depicted with vibrant colour. Rina also tells us about her feelings, Elation, happiness, and introspection.

The more I see these works, the more I like them. I keep finding new and interesting things and understand what Rina wants to communicate.

I encourage all our friends to explore the live and online exhibitions by Rina Bakis. Be prepared to enter a magical world,

Gabriel Alvarez

LIGHT AND COLOUR

Both light and colour hold unique and profound meanings for me. They signify happiness and joy that I look to spread around me with bright colours. I aim to make people feel cheerful and energetic.Light and color make me also connect with others as it creates a positive energy and uplifts surroundings that give well-being and love to the viewers.

Dreamlike mountains in a colourful surrounding.

It is a misty morning in the fields

“Les Merveilles de La Nature”

The flourishing of life after rain shows the renewal and growth of the natural world which is a marvel.

“Hello

It’s about the untamed spirit of plants as they sway in the breeze, reaching towards the sun with a sense of liberation.

It is a time of renewal, rebirth, and balance to spread hope, growth, and the promise of warmer days ahead.

“New Horizons” Acrylic on canvas

It’s about starting all over again

The spider web is the di"erent paths of life.

“Fire

Dancers”

Acrylic on canvas

The plants are alive with the energy of flames which is a metaphor for the vitality and resilience of nature.

“Blue

It shows the beauty and diversity found in the natural world, where contrasting elements come together to create something truly breathtaking.

It emphasises the contrast between the transparency of the netting and the solidity of the objects it contains and supports.

“Out

and About” Oil and Acrylic on canvas

For tranquility, adventure and a breath of fresh air, The blue of the water, The Green of the nature and The yellow of sunny fields try to make a day out and about.

It is a clash of ideologies, cultures, and identities represented by different colors.

“Reflections”

It is the complexity and the interconnectedness of the natural world and the ephemeral beauty of light and colours.

“Landscape of the Lake” Oil on canvas. Triptych

The nature comes alive with energy and vitality. Rolling hills, majestic mountains, serene lakes, and winding rivers embrace the beauty of the natural world.

“What About Me?”

It is what attracts us, move in our own individual way with curiosity and playfulness, and expand our awareness .

FOREWORD TO THE ONLINE EXHIBITION UNIVERSAL DYNAMICS

We are delighted to produce Universal Dynamics, an exhibition of Rina Bakis work. I met Rina in a fortuitous encounter, and I was bewitched by the beauty and strength of her work. It is full of colour and movement, sometimes explosive and sometimes gentle, like a warm summer wind. Through her work, Rina talks to us about buildings and climate change, and sometimes about nature, lakes, trees, and dreams of happiness. Colour is essential in her work; combined with completely abstract shapes that somehow reflect natural forms, she tells us magical stories of dreams and desires.

I cordially invite the viewer to explore this magical world and be amazed as I was.

BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES

Rina Bakis was born in Istanbul and lived in Israel and South Africa before moving to London. Her journey into a few more countries has given her a unique perspective and influenced her art. She studied graphic design and architectural technician, which contributed to her understanding of form, colour, and structure, which are all essential elements in her transition from figurative to geometric and then to complete abstract art. Such an evolution was a continual search for new modes of expression and a willingness to explore different artistic styles.
