Zeef Oria: The Quiet Force of Painting
After decades of silence, Zeef Oria returned to painting not as a continuation, but as a transformation. His recent works feel less like images and more like states of being – suspended between chaos and calm, memory and presence, gesture and stillness. Rather than narrating stories, his paintings invite contemplation: they ask the viewer to slow down, to remain, to listen. In this conversation, we explore art not as production, but as an existential practice – a way of thinking, feeling, and encountering the unknown through paint.
