Biography
Vasilko´s painting
has for a long time inclined towards a unique creative program emerging from the romantic enthusiasm for production and utility machines, various mechanism, production halls and robots. „Mechanisms“ in Vasilko’s paintings fulfill the function of the story heroes, bearers of the ideological or philosophical messages and symbols. The important moment is the absurdity in the „Frankenstein“exchange of the roles of a human being and his creation-an inanimate mechanical object. Within this transformation process the author constantly toys with a classic iconography whilst using its formal and content dogma. His personal version of the painting corresponds with its techno clean motif basis. An extremely clean handwriting dominates here, geometrical accuracy of the lines, clean areas creating bright compositions and softened coloring. In his latest works he moves towards more graphic expression, the painting becomes almost monochromatic and based mostly on linear relationships. Vasilko”s personal relation towards „the old or new mechanisms and “agro mechanism“ has back then led to the establishment of the Iron Party along with a similar „utopian romantic“, Peter Kralik
