Radiance celebrates the vitality that emerges when colour becomes emotion. Saturated with luminous oranges, scarlets, golds and flashes of violet and green, the painting conveys warmth, movement and optimism, inviting the viewer to experience light as something deeply felt rather than simply observed.
Rather than concealing what came before, Radiance embraces it. Layers from an earlier figurative painting remain embedded beneath the surface, allowing fragments of its previous life to inform the final composition. The work becomes a celebration of creative energy itself—a reminder that even after transformation, traces of the past continue to illuminate the present.

Launching at Pittenweem Arts Festival - Scotland, UK.
This artwork will be available to purchase online from Saturday 1 August 2026, the opening day of our exhibition at Pittenweem Arts Festival.
Until then, we invite you to explore the collection and join us in Scotland for Hrvoje Majer's Scottish debut.
Radiance forms part of Hrvoje's Abstract Collection, a body of work created through transformation rather than beginning as abstraction. Most paintings originate as figurative compositions before being reimagined through expressive layers of colour, texture and movement.
Inspired by the scraping techniques pioneered by Gerhard Richter, Hrvoje balances deliberate decisions with spontaneous mark-making. Hidden beneath each finished surface are earlier paintings whose energy remains embedded within the work, creating abstract pieces that celebrate reinvention, resilience and the unexpected beauty that can emerge from change.
