Color Painting The painting is a capsule that holds a “duration”, a testament to the time and process of
creation. The grasp of painting in time is abstract, but it also has real, visual expressions
embodied in the work itself. If we turned to look at Biran’s paintings we would find: increasing density; Movements of ascension, decline, or inwards perspective; Metamorphoses and incarnations that transform angels into human beings, humans into crowds, crowds into pests, as well as land into heaven, moon into sun, and invitation into painting. All these and other traces in the various paintings attest to the creative time and the “duration”, the time of the painting and painting as time.
