In addition to the undoubted gift of expressing himself in the language of fine art, he deeply and powerfully engenders existential secrets. His urge for creation finds its final meaning in the cosmological dimension whose character is above every <em>forma mentis<\/em> and intervenes with the ontological-personal spheres. In fact, the subject of his artistic vivisections are the secrets of transfigurations incomparably more important than the visual language.<\/p>\n<p>He materializes and presents all the intimate, but also the explorative states and situations that provoke the artist into a creative act and integrate it into the puzzle of everyday life, leaving a meta treasure trove of the past \u2013 into the future.<\/p>\n<p>Spirovski\u2019s works of art are free from their physical boundaries and speak primarily of a state in which reality is reshaped into new ontological meta reality. By deconstructing the material and rebuilding it into a new visual form it achieves the effect of transforming reality and focuses on its inner experience, transformation and transcendence. In that harmony, the creation becomes a metaphysical interspace of the visual conception of the thought in the space. That is why Slavcho Spirovski\u2019s works are a spiritual horizon in the pursuit of his primordial beginnings and the shaping of perfection into the imperfect, where the central feature of being is the thirst and hunger for perfection&#8230; That artistic concept is in fact his empirical baggage which as a continuous zero and circle traverses the wastelands of an already largely artificial world, bewildered by its immense complexity and out of the zone of control with its immeasurable genericity.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; With his art vocabulary, Spirovski talks about inner impulse and external expression&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In this exhibition titled <em>Angularity<\/em><em> of the illusion of the packeting<\/em> he displays prints of the PRE-Pre\/packet\/ing of Vx in h = 0 installation realized in Kichevo, followed by the 2012 installation at Berlin\u2019s \u201cPrima Center\u201d titled: Pre\/packet\/ing Vx thru V1 &#8211; (&#8230;), which are actually based on prints from the installation Pre\/packet\/ing Vx thru V1 &#8211; (&#8230;) from the exhibition at the National Gallery of Macedonia at Mala Stanica, Skopje in 2011.<\/p>\n<p>The subtle change in this conception (as opposed to the previous ones) is its shift from 2D to 3D exhibit (originally performed in 3D at <em>Mala Stanica<\/em> then performed in 2D in Berlin and Kichevo), associated with its constant revision of his own accomplishments, but trying to find a new opportunity to re-read the conditions and his work with the basics of sculpture&#8230; pedestal \u2013 work of art &#8211; space&#8230; Through this \u201crepetition\u201d of the pre\/packet\/ing of the same spatial installation Spirovski achieves \u201ccancellation\u201d of the actual original installation, where the third dimension of the original idea is reduced to 2D and then remade into 3D, and minimizes the spaciousness on the floor and on the wall of the gallery space. Compared to previous explorations, radicalization of his concept is evident. By multiplying the previous situations, the sculptural form is broken down and transferred into a conceptual form for the idea of \u200b\u200bthe sculptural or the notion of <em>shadow of the shadow<\/em>. Spirovski starts with a specific form or following Plotinus\u2019s philosophy from the origin of being, in this case the sculpture \u2013 the One to create, through the process of emanation, an end product with complete absence of sculptural-plastic form or absence of form &#8211; being. In this case, Plato\u2019s philosophy, <em>the shadow of a shadow<\/em>, is intertwined because it supports the world of ideas and strives for the forms of existence. The shadow of the mimetic world in this case is an intermediary to true knowledge, not just a copy. Spirovski creates the effect of simulating the sculptural body that is set on the floor and the walls of the gallery, creating aesthetics of space within space. In addition to spiritual values, his works also require scientific and mathematical calculations of space, matter, time&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>To present Spirovski\u2019s work is a rather complex undertaking, but the closest description of this complex cognitive structure emanating from this artistic phenomenon is a completely open\/closed system of communication and creation. Experimenting with conceptual premises provides an original art product with deepened aesthetic results.<\/p>\n<p>The basic purpose of Slavco Spirovski\u2019s work is to express the author\u2019s freedom in the thoughtful translation of his personal experience and aesthetic visual shaping through deconstruction and reshaping of the classical forms of visual expression and understanding of sculpture and to create new forms of its existence which makes him an intriguing author of his time. The <em>Angularity of the illusion of the packeting<\/em> is a project that corresponds to the reductionist needs of the perpetual crisis in society, the arts and the strategies of global visual communication. The main concept of this project is in its need to resist the social events and the fine arts and to respond to this challenge by constructing a work of art-system that will not cease to exist after its realization and short-lived \u201csensationalist\u201d presentation.<\/p>\n<p>The essence of energy transforming from one form to another as a manifestation of the uninterrupted flow of cosmic energy, establishes harmony where the cycles of creation and disappearance and re-creation speak of the transformations that everything is subjected to in the universe.<\/p>\n<p>Gorancho Gjorgjievski<\/p>\n<p>December 2019, Skopje<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"ngg-galleryoverview caption-view  ngg-ajax-pagination-none\"\n\tid=\"ngg-gallery-b67709f086d2e75f05a8231f78c9fc11-1\">\n\n    <div class=\"ngg-caption-view-wrapper\">\n                                        <div id=\"ngg-image-0\" class=\"ngg-gallery-thumbnail-box ngg-3-columns\" >\n                                                    <div class=\"ngg-gallery-thumbnail\">\n                                <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/gallery\/slavco_spirovski\/Slavco_Spirovski-Angularity_detail-1.jpg\"\n                                   title=\"\"\n                                   data-src=\"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/gallery\/slavco_spirovski\/Slavco_Spirovski-Angularity_detail-1.jpg\"\n                                   data-thumbnail=\"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/gallery\/slavco_spirovski\/thumbs\/thumbs_Slavco_Spirovski-Angularity_detail-1.jpg\"\n                                   data-image-id=\"2921\"\n                                   data-title=\"Slavco_Spirovski-Angularity_detail-1\"\n                                   data-description=\"\"\n                                   data-image-slug=\"slavco_spirovski-angularity_detail-1\"\n                                    class=\"ngg-fancybox\" rel=\"b67709f086d2e75f05a8231f78c9fc11\">\n                                    <img title=\"Slavco_Spirovski-Angularity_detail-1\"\n                                         alt=\"Slavco_Spirovski-Angularity_detail-1\"\n                                         src=\"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/gallery\/slavco_spirovski\/thumbs\/thumbs_Slavco_Spirovski-Angularity_detail-1.jpg\"\n                                         width=\"240\"\n                                         height=\"160\"\n                                         style=\"max-width:100%;\"\/>\n                                <\/a>\n                                                                    <span style=\"max-width: 240px\">\n                                                                            <\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                                <div id=\"ngg-image-1\" class=\"ngg-gallery-thumbnail-box ngg-3-columns\" >\n                                                    <div class=\"ngg-gallery-thumbnail\">\n                                <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/gallery\/slavco_spirovski\/Invitation.jpg\"\n                                   title=\"\"\n                                   data-src=\"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/gallery\/slavco_spirovski\/Invitation.jpg\"\n                                   data-thumbnail=\"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/gallery\/slavco_spirovski\/thumbs\/thumbs_Invitation.jpg\"\n                                   data-image-id=\"2922\"\n                                   data-title=\"Invitation\"\n                                   data-description=\"\"\n                                   data-image-slug=\"invitation-1\"\n                                    class=\"ngg-fancybox\" rel=\"b67709f086d2e75f05a8231f78c9fc11\">\n                                    <img title=\"Invitation\"\n                                         alt=\"Invitation\"\n                                         src=\"http:\/\/www.gallerymc.org\/h\/wp-content\/gallery\/slavco_spirovski\/thumbs\/thumbs_Invitation.jpg\"\n                                         width=\"240\"\n                                         height=\"160\"\n                                         style=\"max-width:100%;\"\/>\n                                <\/a>\n                                                                    <span style=\"max-width: 240px\">\n                                                                            <\/span>\n                                                            <\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n\n    \n            <div class='ngg-clear'><\/div>    <\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>Slav\u010do Spirovski \u2013 sculptor<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Born 01.02.1975 in Skopje, Republic of Macedonia.
