"Korab’s work showcases a diverse range of paintings, each possessing its own language and conceptual depth. His artworks constitute a visual dialogue between nature and the human-made world, blurring the boundaries between organic forms and intertwining geometric structures. This fusion reflects Korab's fascination with the interconnectedness of things and serves as a reminder of the symbiotic relationship between humanity and nature. The artist's paintings demand engagement and interpretation while simultaneously encouraging the embrace of ambiguity. His works don't rely on easy categorizations and challenge our prior notions of art's nature. They remind us that the essence lies not in supplying answers but in asking questions and undermining concepts.
The artist engages in a silent dialogue with the old masters by producing his own paints. He uses natural earth pigments, rock, and stone fillers such as marble, quartz, or dolomite, as well as powdered oxidized metals. This labor-intensive process translates into energy that emanates from the paintings. The authenticity and strength of colors, the depth of matte finish, and the organic and diverse textures all contribute to the fact that we no longer see paint itself; we see a world, a world changing through time and space."
