Toxic Relationships
Rausová, Terezie ; Rodek,, Václav (referee) ; Rathouský, Luděk (advisor)
In my work I have been working for some time with topics such as anthropocene, parasitism, symbiosis and environmental anxiety. I search for and capture the socio-ecological situation. I ironize the self-destructive behavior of modern people in terms of endangering basic life functions and warn of poisoning the environment, which plays an irreplaceable role in the lives of future generations. My source of inspiration is science fiction stories, which often deal with apocalyptic vision. The starting medium for me throughout the study is painting, which I build on strong and fluorescent colors. Formally, the paintings are made of acrylic paint and spray on canvas. The output of the bachelor's thesis is a series of large-format paintings, supplemented by smaller formats, which should attract with their neon colors and at first glance draw the viewer into a toxic zone. The installation should worry the viewer and not leave you cold in connection with the position of man within the social and natural system.

Soloomons Daughters
Brůčková, Kamila ; Prokůpek, Tomáš (referee) ; Rathouský, Luděk (advisor)
The Solomon's daughters comic brings a new concept to the topic of witch-hunting. It is situated in the period before and during World War II, consciously working with associations with the time that is only mediated by literature and film to most people these days. Although some topics concerning humanity and cruelty are still emerging, we perceive this period with a certain distance and a comprehensive evaluation. And precisely because of how clear and familiar the facts are, we can now afford to work with the environment and that time mostly as a backdrop that offers us certain opportunities for story development and aesthetic integrity.

3 T/40/2021-389 – „Everyone agreed to rob the first house “
Kulhavá, Karolína ; Šrek Bromová, Veronika (referee) ; Rathouský, Luděk (advisor)
The content of the bachelor thesis focuses on the processing of crime number 3 T / 40 / 2021–389. Namely, it is an offense of theft, violation of domestic freedom, damage to another's property, and illegal arming, which I figure in the position of a victim. The painting elaboration of this topic, or personal experience, naturally arose for me based on my previous work, areas of interest in creation, and efforts to develop them. The series of paintings I have created depicts the subject from the position of a surroundings observer after committing a crime. These paintings capture nothing more than the artefacts themselves. In various ways, these artefacts have become crucial shreds of evidence. The used painting technique is oil paint on a canvas of different sizes.

Translation
Boček, Matěj ; MgA. David Böhm Ph.D (referee) ; Rathouský, Luděk (advisor)
"My body is like the zero point of the experienced world, the centre from which it comes and to which all orientation is bound." My thesis is based on a series of figurative paintings. As an inspirational and thematic source I have chosen various personal, intimate experiences filled with the tension of existence, communication or creation. I depict people and their relationships, or the processes of these relationships. People and their relationship to other people through communication, language, text or emotions. The human being, his relationship to his environment and the traces that the environment leaves in him. Man and his relationship to himself, turning inwards and reflecting on his own identity and existence.

Do you know what a fish will do when it runs up a hill?
Elznic, Zita ; Štroblová, Kateřina (referee) ; Rathouský, Luděk (advisor)
Diploma thesis entitled Do you know what a fish will do when it runs up a hill? concerns the topic of industrial fishing. Formally, it is an installation that contains two parts. The first part is an oval object on which are attached mechanical fish, which form a moving flock. Using engines, they interact with each other and the viewer accompanied by the song. The second part includes three separate mechanical fish, which create a direct dialogue with the viewer. The installation is located in a white cube. The result is to give the impression that the fish are alive and, with the help of a human voice, get closer to the viewer. Title Do you know what a fish does when it runs up a hill? based on a child's joke. This sentence is characteristic of the topic, in that it is all nonsense. The fish do not run, do not move on land and do not even talk. An attempt at this joke to humanize fish is quickly over when you know the answer. Just clapping tells us how foreign this different world is.

METAPHYSICAL STORIES
Dvořák, Vojtěch ; Písařík, Petr (referee) ; Rathouský, Luděk (advisor)
The work entitled "Metaphysical stories" relates to the personal perception and experience of the outside world and oneself, as well as to the perception of painting and picture. The concept of metaphyisics is borrowed from philosophy precisely for its thematization of human existence. The narrative presents a stream of expressions intended for sharing, communication, entertainment and learning. The bachelor thesis consists of a series of oil paintings on canvas. These are abstract paintings in which I examine the shape, color and subject matter of the painting. Imaginative scenes devoid of figures and perspectives. The aim is to open up as much space as possible to unlimited expression.

Abstract Drawing
Nováková, Bára ; Zapletal, Aleš (referee) ; Rathouský, Luděk (advisor)
The bachelor thesis consists of five large-format charcoal drawings on paper. The central motif is transformation, its possibilities, forms and ways. The drawings show constant movement and transformation, living matter, the ruling force inherent in the natural elements. The bachelor thesis has an imaginative character and works mainly with abstract morphology. But even though the drawings are abstract, I purposefully work with them in the spatiality and light modeling of objects, as with real things. In a way, the drawings illustrate the processes during which things take shape.

Kamikakushi
Pejchová, Natálie ; Ptáček, Jiří (referee) ; Rathouský, Luděk (advisor)
The term kamikakushi is an old Japanese traditional technique of magical abduction (spiritual travel, where one's attention is taken from the normal state of consciousness to the deeper layers of perception of reality), in which the victim does not recall the abduction. I borrowed this term from Japanese mythology, which is used in stories for kids. In our meaning it could be understood as forgetting myself / not being witty in everyday life is a breathless journey to imagination. The boundary between exploring the facts, real but also starring into nowhere, where the spaces begin to come to life by themselves only, because we decide to attach importance to it. It is the moment when restlessness awakens, making the noise rumbling in that empty silence. I connect with space, I am the nature reference, I am a dialogue, a mirror. This state of perception, experience of reality is for me an important source of imagination. It is a state in which painting takes place. Reality becomes magical when we turn our attention to it and empty it at the same time from notion. Emotion is the primordial sign of perception, creating an atmosphere of its use is the idea of reviving is the search for an image.
