The striking cycle named Aranea is a captivating artistic creation by Josip Mijić, a highly skilled painter and holder of an art PhD. The cycle encompasses an incredible eighty-two achromatic small sculptures, each of approximately 10 x 10 x 10 cm, and was crafted with great care and precision in a combined technique spanning from 2017-2018. The wooden cubes, adorned in black paint, serve as the backbone of the entire cycle and are further embellished by spider webs or cobwebs to produce an astonishing work of art.

It is worth noting that Aranea is a direct result of Mijic long-standing investigation into the identity of the dark (color black) and the identity of matter in sacral and contemporary art.

This Collection is a demonstration of Mijić’s artistic prowess and his ability to create a deep meaning with his art while exploring themes of the transcendent, material, and the unexplainable. The intricate nature of the sculptures combined with the use of spider webs creates an enigmatic, almost mystical aura which leaves the observer transfixed. Josip Mijić's Aranea cycle is undoubtedly a masterpiece, a testament to his prodigious talents and unyielding fascination with the intersection of art and the beyond.
