“Threshold of the Invisible” stands as the inaugural gesture in the series God is always here — a visual invocation and a silent cry toward the unseen architecture of divinity. In this 60 x 60 cm mixed-media painting, Ovidiu Kloska does not depict the divine — he summons it through gesture, light, and the symbolic architecture of the cross.
The work situates itself within the expanded field of contemporary spiritual abstraction, where painting transcends aesthetic intention and becomes an ontological instrument — a portal, a ritual, a threshold. The central cross is not a religious emblem per se, but a metaphysical coordinate system: a place of convergence between spirit and matter, chaos and order, seen and unseen. The vertical axis evokes ascension — the soul’s trajectory — while the horizontal plane gestures toward presence, incarnation, and grounding.
Kloska's surface language — layered atmospheres of turquoise, ash-gray, ether-blue, and spectral white — constructs a liminal mist, akin to a veil between dimensions. These chromatic fields are neither decorative nor expressive in the traditional sense. They are frequencies, carriers of sacred ambiguity. The eye is not merely invited to observe but to surrender to stillness — to fall into contemplation, into silence.
Drips, micro-marks, and almost-calligraphic traces suggest spiritual residue: echoes of prayer, or remnants of forgotten languages reaching out beyond time. The viewer does not stand in front of this painting, but rather within it, in an existential intimacy where the canvas becomes both a mirror and a membrane.
Inscribed at the base — seemingly improvised, yet intensely intentional — the words God is here hover between declaration and incantation. Their presence anchors the work in a post-religious spirituality — where the artist does not claim doctrine, but acknowledges the urgency of transcendence in a fractured, hyper-rational world.
“Threshold of the Invisible” is both an artifact and an altar. It refuses the spectacle and embraces the sacred as process, as breath, as presence. It belongs to a contemporary lineage of artists who seek not to decorate the void, but to pierce it, to remind us — in quiet urgency — that God has never left. We have simply forgotten how to see.
