Water, sea and waves are transformed into a life metaphor. Both Goethe and Baudelaire have associated water with human destiny, a fact which many people perceive of in a similar way. Saltaferos achieves this combination. His works of art are contemporary water depictions, through which the observer can find his/her own internal pictorial worlds. His paintings invite us to paint further with the thought, to be transported by the slow motion to the powerful vibration outside the painting domain. In this respect the paintings can be also understood as a plea for traveling into thought and against stagnation. Accordingly, they transfer their energy to the observer.
