A work of art, including a painting, consists of two inseparable layers - the visual layer, i.e. form, and the content, expressed through this visuality. It is impossible to dispense with one of these layers in painting, every artistic form is a carrier of content, every content has a form. Therefore, painting can be considered one of the varieties of language. A language in which sentences are formulated through the efficient and conscious use of artistic forms, and which is used to express judgments or tell stories about reality. Awareness of the importance of one's own statement is extremely important, especially today, in a world where every day our ears and eyes reach so much content, some of which have a huge impact on our own lives, while the vast majority of them doesn't matter to us.
