| Abstract | Diplomski rad „Dota“ prikaz je suvremene verzije dote ili miraza u obliku simboličkog prikaza nematerijalne osobne baštine koju žena, u ovom slučaju sama autorica, donosi u brak udajom. Pomno birajući fotografije i oslikavanjem prizora iz prošlosti, autorica se suočava sa sjećanjima, događajima, ljudima, mjestima iz njezinog djetinjstva, adolescencije i rane mladosti. Kroz proces oslikavanja, šivanja i sastavljanja jedinstvenog pokrivača od mnoštva manjih oslikanih zakrpa, stvara predmet jedinstvenog osobnog značenja. Autorica se na taj način povezuje sa svojim obiteljskim nasljeđem te iz svojih korijena crpi snagu za rast i stvaranje nove obiteljske grane. Pokrivač s ušivenim prizorima iz prošlosti služi kao štit i naslovnica novonastalog bračnog para. Toplina i intimni ugođaj stvaraju sigurnu i zaštićenu zonu od tuđih pogleda. Prezentaciju rada uključuje performans u kojem supružnici mirno leže ispod „Dote“. Spoj tradicionalne tehnike ulja na platnu s nekonvencionalnim kontekstom pokrivača, uronjen u život autorice i njezinog supruga, stvara suvremenu umjetničku priču, no zastupa tradicionalne, kršćanske vrijednosti braka i obitelji. Jedan od najvažnijih aspekta je vidljiva manifestacija vjere u svakodnevici. Svaki oslikani prizor na platnu, kao i performans, daje naglasak na obične, svakodnevne trenutke. Duhovna osnova te ideje je prihvaćanje i radosno vršenje povjerenih dužnosti u datom trenutku, staležu, točno na mjestu na kojem jesi jer u tome je Božja volja i svetost života. |
| Abstract (english) | The master thesis "Dota (Dowry)" is a depiction of a contemporary version of a dowry in the form of a symbolic representation of the intangible personal heritage that a woman, in this case, the author herself, brings into marriage. By carefully selecting photographs and painting scenes from the past, the author confronts memories, events, people, and places from her childhood, adolescence, and early youth. Through the process of painting, sewing, and assembling a unique quilt from numerous smaller painted patches, she creates an object of unique personal significance. In this way, the author connects with her family heritage, drawing strength from her roots to grow and create a new family branch. The quilt with sewn scenes from the past serves as a shield and a cover for the newly formed married couple. The warmth and intimate atmosphere create a safe and protected zone from prying eyes. The presentation of the work includes a performance in which the spouses peacefully lie under the "Dowry." The combination of traditional oil painting techniques with the unconventional context of the quilt, immersed in the life of the author and her husband, creates a contemporary artistic narrative while advocating traditional Christian values of marriage and family. One of the most important aspects is the visible manifestation of faith in everyday life. Each painted scene on the canvas, as well as the performance, emphasizes ordinary, everyday moments. The spiritual foundation of this idea is the acceptance and joyful fulfillment of entrusted duties in the given moment and class, exactly where you are, for in this lies God's will and the holiness of life. |
