Bomba belongs to Kuděla’s non-figurative paintings. In this work, the artist explores the motif of dense network-like structures composed of tubular forms. At the center stands an empty, open cardboard box resting atop the entangled chaos. The overgrown structure, its interconnections and entanglements, ultimately culminate in a coherent and complex order represented by the precise geometry of the box. However, the box is empty and open. Two contrasting focal points coexist within a single pictorial plane. The painting conveys a dystopian impression and offers a critical view of the paradigm of excess as a destructive force.
