[1] National customs, church festivals, celebrations, natural disasters, misfortunes, human existence in general represented by interwoven friezes of people with exaggerated gestures, are all metaphors of collective consciousness, of total power of human multitude in good and evil.
Horses, white, yellow, red rising on hind legs against the ruby-red sky and symbolizing life power, or a dragon representing the evil, all dwell in Jevtovic's rosy heaven like an eternal counterpoint: the fight between the real and imagined, good and bad… Dozens of portraits of human groups are connected by various incidents.
Gestures, clothes, and habits display features typical of the area and the people in ecstatic mood.
The artist wishes to connect them with a ritual and therefore applies a pictorial structure resulting in perfect and imaginative observations.
