Gigax creates a universe of untamed creatures and imagined utopias, shaped by post-feminist thought, art history, and storytelling. The works unfold like modern fairy tales: luminous, non-linear, and deeply rooted in the currents of our time. Yet beneath their playful surface lies a reflection of the present, a world where reality and fantasy merge.

 

The canvas is not pristine but aged cardboard, marked by time and history. Layer by layer, Gigax rubs pastel pigments into its fibers, allowing color and texture to emerge organically. This tactile process transforms the material into a visual language, where pigment whispers, surfaces remember, and forgotten forms come to light.

 

The landscapes glow from within, they are psychological maps where playfulness meets the uncanny. Their inhabitants exist in a state of in-between: mischievous yet monstrous, surreal yet familiar, lingering on the threshold between reality and dream.

 

Gigax’s art invites the viewer to see the present through the lens of a fairy tale. The works mirror the fractures and contradictions of our time, a reality condensed into fantastical images. In this world, chaos and beauty become inseparable, the unreal reveals deeper truths, and the boundaries between fiction and reality dissolve.
