Work no. 15

Pejković’s work featured in our artwork gallery uses meticulously crafted black threads wrapped around wire and plaster skeletons to transform the grand narrative of universal creation into intricate sculptures. His pieces aren’t just representations of cosmic events — they’re physical poems about emergence, transformation, and the delicate balance between darkness and potential. Each thread, each careful construction, speaks to the complex choreography of molecular interactions that ultimately create stars, planets, and life itself. 

In exploring these cosmic themes through such intimate materiality, Pejković’s work confronts us with the existential questions at the heart of human consciousness. The interplay between void and substance in his sculptures mirrors our own search for meaning in a vast universe — each carefully wrapped thread becoming a metaphor for how we construct significance in the face of cosmic silence. Like the existentialists of the 1960s who preached through the spirit of nothingness and absurdity, Pejković’s work doesn’t shy away from the void — instead, it transforms it into something profound through patient, methodical creation. His pieces don’t attempt to escape into pure concept; they remain grounded in the physical world while reaching for metaphysical understanding.

These works exist simultaneously as form and structure, as intimate object and environmental presence. They achieve this not through dramatic gestures or aesthetic pretense, but through the humble, deliberate act of weaving and constructing, transforming potentially unsettling forms into authentic artistic expression.

Ideal for collectors seeking original art from local Croatian artists, Pejković’s works invite us to reconsider the Big Bang as a patient, intricate process of becoming — a reminder of the extraordinary complexity hidden within seemingly simple beginnings.
