" "They are shaman-artists who constantly strive to look into the blueprint of creation beyond the visual crowd and the noise of superficial details, the one on task to explore and communicate with a primary game of opposite values during composition and construction of a coherent imagery. They paint from both levels, the personal and the intimate and the universal one which emerges from life-giving tension. Every Ink image, every Sumi-e painting, is a unique crossroad of oppositions, of directions, of intentions. They are all constant reminders of the duality of creation and the accuracy of the equation where two equals one.

Additional quotes by Alfred Freddy Krupa
Although I have never seen another artist (in my environment) to be more serious in a grated ink (surely there are some), I really did feel good in it. I went out several times at night (for the authenticity of experience) with glass-free glasses and built-in flashlights, seated in the park, by the river, or going to the old town of Dubovac and adding something of a greater variety to my drawing opus. I was concerned with the release of light and the "emergence" of the form from the full black and the emptiness of blank paper. Unlike drawings and images where I always have the feeling of creating a form, in this technique I have a sense of liberating the form (which is present but hidden).

Looking at, ie analyzing the so-called the visual elements of an image, we see the surface, the outer look of an artwork. All practical art education (the use of artistic elements, ie art grammar) is mainly focused on this surface analysis. Sometimes, through these elements, it tries to penetrate deep into the essence of the image, into what it initiated and created a work, into an experience (this is the primary task of theory, sociology, and art history). This is very difficult. There are works that undoubtedly suggest its depth and meaning, but there is, at least sometimes, the possibility of a mistake.
