Works of art, the products of human imagination in general, create maps that humanity has always used to try and grasp that which always seems to be one step ahead. A mathematician, having a wealth of knowledge in a narrow discipline, working for long enough time, sooner or later, will encounter a singularity. /A singularity is defined as a / This compels them to search. Often a new way is found in the process. Singularities are but doorways to entire new realities. Regardless of the media one uses or one’s sphere of interests and references, the imagination is always the framework for art to actualize, everything else is accidental. It resonates with every other aspect of one’s life. Knowledge without imagination is merely information. Without imagination one can attain knowledge but not understanding. A painting gives an access to an illusory friction, a possible gateway in the fabric of reality that can be “gazed” or even, perhaps, “walked through”. Throughcontact with paintings (in the broadest possible sense of the word) perception itself can be changed, it can reevaluate seeing. On the way to art, one crosses many paths: thoughts, sensations, feelings, sensory stimuli. The visual component resonates strongly with memory. At times, observing a painting can help one reconnect; go back to one’s roots and affirm their identity. Art can also be means of communication with the rest of the world. It allows one to “speak” about things difficult to name, or things lacking name entirely. It helps to order reality, notice patterns of raw images, beyond words. The lifespan of a single human being is dreadfully short. However art seems to be a part of something much vaster. It has a dimension of its own; it works on its own time, less linear and parallel. I believe in a way, a way that goes beyond man and that the most fascinating phenomena, happens in that place where the two meet. Dorzecza to miejsca stałe w swojej zmienności. Rzeki zmieniają swoje koryta, wylewają, wysychają. Są starorzecza, martwe koryta rzek i nowe dopływy, ślepe odnogi, kanały łączące ze sobą rzeki i jeziora. Na rozlewiskach gromadzą się ptaki. Są nurty wartkie albo leniwe, spokojne, albo pełne wirów i zdradliwych prądów. Koryta rzek bywają zarośnięte szuwarami, pełne falujących wodorostów, wąskie i tajemnicze, albo rozległe, przestrzenne. Są zimne i świeże źródła oraz skażone, zmęczone ujścia. Dorzecza kojarzą się z czymś pierwotnym, z początkiem. Większość prastarych cywilizacji zaczynała się rozwijać na brzegach wielkich rzek i żyła w rytmie ich przemian. Rzeki były szlakami komunikacyjnymi, łączyły ludzi nie mniej niż mosty. Mogły też pozbawić życia. Metaforycznie mówi się o czasie, który płynie jak rzeka i o rzece ludzi, wylewającej się na ulice. Można „płynąć z biegiem rzeki” lub „iść pod prąd”, albo podążać w górę rzeki, by „powrócić do źródeł”. Jadąc rowerem do mojego studia widzę z mostu na Wiśle szeroką, świetlistą perspektywę wody i nieba, a później pędzę w dół małą ścieżką wśród zarośli dzikiego, prawego brzegu. Intensywnie odczuwam zmianę perspektywy i krajobrazu, natężenia wilgoci w powietrzu, nagły chłód. Nadzieja i radość początku wiosny, późniejsze nasycenie lata i zwiastuny usypiania drzew dotyczą również mojego życia. Mimo jesiennego chłodu czasem jadę tą drogą, żeby widzieć znajome miejsca odmienione, w kolejnej odsłonie przemijania. Witalność i bezwład świata roślin i wody, fenomeny światła i zapachów, powidoki obrazów napotkanych po drodze zabieram ze sobą do pracowni. Tam łączą się one z innymi obrazami, zmieniającymi się w czasie, przywołanymi w pamięci i powstają nowe…

“I am delighted by this exhibition. It displays a rare sense of beauty, the drama of the world and man's place in it. The paintings are technically bold and highly accomplished (...). It's a very pleasant surprise for me that something like this Is So close. There's a huge sense of drama and tension in the work and a great question mark regarding human existence. Also, a very dynamic organisation of space ... the images are superb" Prof. Andrzej Strumiłło about „The desert” project Aleksandra Batura (b.1982) a Warsaw based artist and mother of two sons. Aleksandra does easel painting. She has undertaken numerous video projects, experimented with painting and drawing techniques as well as designed and completed several mural paintings.
