Exhibition of Arts on May 25-27 in Washington D.C. , at the Mayflower hotel and online
So happy to be included in the show, with two images of my paintings on solar panels from the Noravisionsolarmetaverse series!
One is entitled “Sunflower tears”, yet created in 2021, but actually presented with the reminiscence of recent painful events from Ukraine and the symbolic use of a Sunflower as their national symbol, but also as memory from the famous Van Gogh painting – actually, I was painting a sunflower in the garden, some rainy late afternoon…
The other painting, The Rose of Lovings /La Rrose d’Amour was created recently, also in the plain air, in the garden as almost all of all paintings from that series, depicting a beautiful rose, a gift from recent friend, Bojana Dornig Kavčič, and flourishing garden in the sunset. This painting is full of love, hope and harmony, with another historical reference, Duchamp’s “Rrose C’est la Vie”, a small scetch depicting – Rodin’s lovers, I’ve also realised as an drypoint already in the past.
Both paintings are using flat, transparent parts together with more pastose ones.
The show is actually curated by Kelsey Moon, MAGI Founder & CEO, GBA Art Show Director…”Beauty will Save the World” MAGI Intermedia Impact Creative Economy https://amagination.art/
, and I’d just received her kind confirmative letter:
” Hi Dear,
We have received an art submission from you from the 2021 show. The google drive is not accessible, however the other link was. There was photos of you in a gallery and great photo of a painting you created with greens and pinks.
I want to assume that this painting is the image that you would like to submit for the show? We would ha[pily mint this image and include it in the 2022 show since the 2021 had to be enveloped into this showing due to Covid-19 shutdown.
Please let me know as soon as possible, as I want to make sure the correct art piece is included and did not receive a viable link to the piece/a link to multiple pieces so I had to guess which.
In worst case scenario that you do not respond in time, we will mint this beautiful piece for you, include it, and if there is a problem then we will just burn it. I would rather include you than not include you 😉
May 25-27 in Washington D.C. at the Mayflower hotel and online.
thank you and congrats!
Moon ”

More detailed explanation of the project: “Sunflower tears” and “La Rrose d’Amour ( title recalling Duchamp…) are part of Noravisionsolarmetaverse project, The Garden of Eden series, as I’m working yet from 2018 on this sustainable project of upcycling of used solar panels. Actual used and no more functional panels are transformed into new portals of visual energy and sustainable message, please refer to the explanation about the project from the link below on Artsy platform.
However, there is also a symbolic representation of fading sunflower in tears linked with actual Ukrainien war, a whisper of sadness and death into impressive almost romantic atmosphere in a Garden…; but there is a hope, as allways, in every situation, and The Rose of Love, painted in spring, my last painting, is more dynamic and hopefull.
The third image linked is actual photo of a dance performance I had during the Exhibition.
Technically, almost every painting is painted in classical oil technics, with gold and silver imitations included, 100 x 164 x 4 cm large…
“Noravision Gallery is presenting, on the one hand, a show THE GARDEN OF EDEN, NORAVISIONSOLAR project of painted solar panels by artist Norma De Saint Picman, and at the same time a company NORAVISIONDECENTRALIZED ART INVESTMENTS with created NFT https://unstoppabledomains.com/nft gallery preview/noravisiondecentralizedartinvestments.nft , combining traditional and physical Arts with digital twins of transformed NFT avatars, including also a processes of creation, voice and music.
Major solo exhibition show displays paintings on solar panels with essentially floral or landscapes images.
Garden of Eden series includes Plein air paintings, as they have been evolving since September 2020 with first public exposure now.
From the entrance, on the right, the show starts with an autumn postmodern impressionist painting The way of no return, in the orange blue green yellow harmony; It’s actually a view from the author’s childhood house which in autumn turns romantic, almost sentimental, in Gorenjska region.
Golden fruits – Kakis from Sveto have more gray and orange tonality, with the slightly visible octagonal church from Sveto, at Karst, where another Noravision Gallery artist, painter, and architect Alenka Kham Pičman has a studio.
The third and fourth painting with autumn colors, with more vivid red, carmin, violet, and yellow is a Yelow rose, dedicated to the birthday Bouquet of the artist’s son Aron, placed deeper into the space, on the bottom left, near the stand of Noravoisiondecentralized Art Investments, together with second variant of Heavenly Manna, Red & Rose, Bleeding Clouds towards earth.
Other paintings, with predominant greenery , we see on the left, from the entrance, there are three paintings, placed as diptych of Sunset, red summer flowers, with the Pommier en Fleurs, pair of Fairyes.
The other four paintings in the Green Harmony placed as dyptiques at the left and right side of the main stage, are White Harmony Blossom with Rainy trees evening, on the left, and Paon Albino, Hommage à Madani Bo, Îlle de Bercy and Roe deer.
The three paintings in the turquoise, white, violet, and magenta colors exposed partly there – Heavenly manna, exposed at the exhibition stand of Noravisiondecentralized Art Investments, and two others, in the white right part
of the conference Hall – Hortensias, La Lune, and Flourishing Magnolia, the second…
The project has been supported initially by Suncontract , and currently by Bisol Solar Company.
To made a project more accessible to the pubic there are certified digital prints accessible in signed limited editiones. The copy of the Paon Albino was offerred by author to the President of Latvia Mr Egils Levits at the occasion of his visit to the Digital Center, together with President of Slovenia, Mr Boris Pahor.
Sustainable mission of the NORAVISIONSOLAR, Creative & Circular
Noravisionsolar main idea is actually to reuse unfunctional solar panels as artistic paintings in upcycling process. As there is no longer electric energy production and transfer in place there is actually a psychological flow of harmonious aesthetic energy which is transmitted to the spectator merging into observation process. Actual use referring to the static model develops placement of painted solar panels in architectural environment, inclusion as an expressive decoration in the airports, metros, tunnels. However dynamic model uses Auctions are an effective tool for selling that kind of paintings, also as editioned prints, with the NFC chip embedded for detection of ownership, royalties, and other crucial data of an artwork and the NFT editions of existing paintings, some of them already placed at https://unstoppabledomains.com/nft-gallery-preview/noravisiondecentralizedartinvestments
All works, whether from the static or dynamic model, are actually registered on the blockchain-driven art platform Noravision, a decentralized ecosystem through which an eclectic pool of artists, collectors, investors, auction houses, and galleries gather in efforts to raise awareness of the world’s most talented artists through liquid-able digital-asset investments, an AI-powered digital community, and blockchain-driven authenticity & tracking protocols. The mission of the Noravision platform is to create further transparency in efforts to demotivate the art black market, whilst offering higher transactionality speeds, within a fully traceable art world.
The paintings use the concept of ready-made, in a changed contextual context they are placed into the historical or modern architectural frame spreading a positive influence via their decorative, aesthetic, expressive and energetic value in the life of viewers – users, solve the problem of destruction of old panels and harmful effects on the environment while also providing revenue for artists and other active users of the platform – gallerists, auction houses, curators in the Noravision decentralised Arts ecosystem
Toxic cells are used to make photovoltaic cells, whereas lead or carcinogenic cadmium is partially washed out of fragments of solar modules by rainwater. The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) estimated 250,000 tonnes of waste panels for 2016 and forecasted 78 million tonnes by 2050. Glass cannot be recycled as float glass due to its plastic, lead, cadmium and antimony content. 1.8 million panels contain approximately 45,300 kg of cadmium, which is eliminated from plates during disasters. Recycling is more expensive than the economic value of materials, so most panels end up in landfills.
The solution in the future is the production of harmless conductors, and the current problem can also be solved by converting the solar panel to the image base, mural in subways, airports, tunnels – (rough rock tunnels, on the way from Bologna to Monaco …) or following the model of the art platform Paddle 8, which conducted an auction of painted solar panels in the summer of 2018. Extending the life of the panel itself allows respectful storage and creates a positive economic model that also caters the end of old panels while creating a means of recycling and creating unique added value.
From the past exhibitions we can mention the first painted Diptique The Sun Queen which uses the principle of creative recycling in applying the sun cover, rags and pallets while leaving a visible solar grid, only slightly indicated in the Impressionist Sunset, acrylic paints are used. The work was done in collaboration with Suncontract’s CEO, Mr. Gregor Novak as well as Blockchain Lady, using sandblasting technique to equippe their new business premises.
Daily motifs are made in plein air principle in situ – Port of Koper, Port of Trieste, used classic oil colors.
Past series are summarizing night’s motifs of Venice, Rialto, including the pictures of the flooded Saint Marco Square in Venice, which also points to the climate change.
The physical final semi-industrial production predicts fabrication of covering transparent adhesivefilm for the panels, which, for the needs of metro, tunnel and airports decorative equipment, is glued, referring to the principle of editioned graphics whereas part of the project covers graphically processed drawings in the sandblasting technique, and protection with a special varnish.
From the past exhibitions we can mention group shows at MAO, Circular change; Contemporary Venice, Itsliquid, 2019 and solo exhibitions Luce dell eterno, Glass Cathedral Santa Chiara, Murano; Artes Dei, Festival Ljubljana, 2020, Metamorphoses – The Worlds of Change, Ministry for Culture, Ljubljana, and, finally, the current show Noravisionsolar – Garden of Eden.
