The exhibition Jestem, showcases the landscape paintings of Maltese artist Ivan Grixti. Having recently returned to Malta after years in Poland, Grixti reflects on his artistic journey through a series of works that explore the transformative power of nature and place.
The title Jestem (“I am” in Polish) signifies the artist’s philosophy of presence: being fully immersed in the moment and environment. The exhibition features three sections: Polish landscapes marked by their verticality and seasonal transformations; Maltese scenes characterized by their vibrant light and rugged textures; and semi-abstract compositions that reinterpret nature’s essence through bold, emotive brushstrokes with a reverberant sense of colour.
Ivan Grixti’s artistic practice is deeply influenced by his experience in Poland, where he honed his skills and developed a profound appreciation for en plein air painting. This exhibition marks his return to the Maltese art scene and offers viewers a glimpse into his evolving artistic identity.
