Adam Križovenský – It’s an Abstract Kind of Feel

When words fail us, we reach for memes. Memes have become a language in their own right—a language in which humor eases the difficulty of emotional expression, connection, and introspection. In this series of evocative oil paintings, Adam Križovenský reinterprets familiar memes by stripping away their text, leaving their raw emotional essence in focus. Bold brushstrokes and high contrast highlight this ironic aspect of memes: their playful nature enables them to capture deep feelings that are otherwise hard to define.
