ALEKSANDRA KOKOTOVIC

There is one vibratory field that connects all things. This balance what the Buddha called the Middle Way, what Aristotle called the Golden Mean is the birthright of every human being. It is the common root of all religions and link between our inner worlds and outer worlds.

There is one vibratory field that connects all things. This balance what the Buddha called the Middle Way, what Aristotle called the Golden Mean is the birthright of every human being. It is the common root of all religions and link between our inner worlds and outer worlds.

In all her works, Aleksandra deals with questions of existence and cognition that inspires the observer and induces him to review his beliefs.

The enormous price paid for technological development by “loss of innocence”
and the purity of our planet, air, earth and primary environment, is the target where
Alexandra devotes a segment of her work, emphasizing the importance of restoring to the sources, to the origin, the innocence of the original civilizations.

In the world through which I travel, I am endlessly creating myself

People communicate at the conscious limits of perception. These limits are determined by the sense organs, which people use in everyday life. 

While, for example, at the subconscious level, the possibilities of perception and cognition of the surrounding world are unlimited.

Aleksandra Kokotovic’s expressive, layered, abstract paintings, explores the internal conflict that we experience as human beings, striving to become whole, questioning our existence and our fundamental beliefs. Inspired by human existence, Blue Pill is a paradox between knowledge and ignorance. The “blue pill” is referenced in society as inhibiting knowledge yet the subjects of her work are uninhibited. The observer is thus challenged to create their own truth.

In 1967, Guy Debord asserted that in the society of the spectacle, false archaic oppositions, various regionalisms and discrimination are revived, serving as the means of gaining a superior status within the consumer hierarchy. The ruling elite is shaping a twisted world and abusing its power to impose such a constrained perspective. Nowadays, in the domination of a multitude of different truths, the erosion of trust is witnessed.

True, man is a liar, corrupt and hypocrite, but he knows how to love. That is why it is the biggest puzzle. A cosmic enigma. The million dollar question. In the name of that love, he is ready to do anything, even to draw a sword, and when swords are drawn, the first victim is the TRUTH. It's been like that since the first one, the Trojan War, until today.

Once a carpenter friend of mine brought me a truck full of doors from an old house, because he was replacing them all. He knew I would use them somehow. They were worn out and at the same time filled with life. Each of them raised questions and opened the imagination: "who are the people who used them, what is behind them, and what came before". I had the same feeling when I found myself in front of Alexandra's paintings.

There is no line in nature. Reducing the world and its form to a contour is actually an act of translation, the result of an elementary achievement of the mind in an attempt to understand and participate in shaping the apparent reality. What we see as a line is the meeting and boundary of two surfaces: the intersection of colors, shapes, and matter. And why, then, from the first writing of the palm in the cave walls until today, does man act through lines and outline his worlds with different materials?

With her strong introspective attitude to the world, Alexandra Kokotovic in her art tries to give a visual representation of a person's true aspirations to master the world, the hidden meanings and secrets of the past. She is deeply seeking answers to civilizational themes, seeking truth as the supreme imperative of the human race. Although it belongs to an era of advanced technologies, technicalism and globalism, the sound of which it preserves, it is a nostalgic pursuit of communicating with us by distant civilizations whose symbols are mere benchmarks of recognition.Alexandra's paintings are compatible with the modern age and deeply engaged...

For Aleksandra Kokotović, painting means passion, dedication, but also a kind of refuge. Refuge from the everyday, banal and trivial, which does not mean escapism from the world, because the author does not avoid facing difficult and complex experiences in her work. Persistently focusing on the problems of existence and cognition, she asks questions and offers answers through the means of visual expression, as evidenced by the poetic titles of her works (At the Edge of the World, Inhabiting the Earth, Consciousness).

"The soul discerns in matter the harmony of its own structure, and from that comes aesthetic
pleasure. In this way, intelligence observes the wonderful sight of the world and its forms:
Aspice mundum et omnia quae in es sunt: multa species et illecebrosas invenies... habet aurum... fulgorem suum, habet decor carnis speciem suam, habent picta et vestes fucatas colorem...Look at the world and everything in it; you will find a lot of enticing beauty... gold has... its luster, body adornment has its beautiful appearance, paintings and ornate dresses have beautiful colors...”

The works of Aleksandra Kokotović seem to place the viewer eye to eye with the author herself, bringing the gaze into the compositionally centrally positioned world of her experiences, feelings and forebodings. I would say that the handwriting with which she expressed her inner treasures is readable by sincere and open souls, so the processes of receiving, understanding and the complete process of life experience that she carries deep inside can be recognized. She bravely agrees to bare her inner self in order to reappear in different levels and skilfully weave the essence of herself in them and share it with the audience...

The key to any alchemical process is the intention that directs the forces of nature toward construction or destruction. Human nature, combined with the character and awareness of the active individual or practitioner, steers the course of history according to their philosophical and spiritual attributes. Every change we observe and every right or wrong turn on the path of civilization’s destiny depends on the quality of the "material" from which a person is formed. The quality of this material, that is, the strength of the human spirit,
