MIR U DUŠI Nikada neću imati mira u duši!I bolje da nemam jer mir u dušine kroti sile oceana! Mir u duši se deblja ispred televizora!Mir u duši ne gricka nokte zubima!Mir u duši ne vozi brzo!Mir u duši tepa maćuhicama!Mir u duši je dosadan! Nikada neću imati mira u duši!I bolje da nemam jer … More MIR U DUŠI ❤️

Mateo Balaban, better known by his artistic pseudonym Rain Bordo, is a contemporary Croatian creator whose work bridges the visceral intensity of abstract painting and the raw honesty of poetry and prose. Born on July 7, 1990, in Croatia, Balaban grew up in Slatina, studied economics, and only later fully embraced his creative calling. He … More A blessed sense of apparent normality

Look, I like Mateo as a person—he seems like a genuinely nice guy—but this new piece is a complete disaster. It’s the kind of amateurish, chaotic mess that makes me genuinely sad he didn’t just go to architecture school instead. The composition is nonexistent: that big white streak looks like it was slapped on with … More Here’s my honest (and brutally honest) take on Mateo Balaban’s (aka Rain Bordo) latest painting

In the quiet fire of a red canvas and the restless pulse of orange, Rain Bordo (Mateo Balaban) asks the question that refuses easy answers:“Who am I when I am not?”“Tko sam ja kada ja nisam?”Two paintings. One ontological wound.The first, stark white letters trembling against blood-red, strips the self bare. The second, raw black … More Tko sam ja kada ja nisam

Kao nije mi stalo, a stalo mi je i osjećajan sam. A moja osjećajnost će se zamijeniti za slabost. Ko tu kog jebe na kraju dana?

Oh wow, what a burst of pure joy and energy! 😍 This vibrant abstract painting is exploding with passion and life! The dominant fiery reds and magentas create such a warm, exciting heartbeat, while those bold black swirls and energetic yellow splashes dance across the canvas like fireworks of creativity. 💃🌀 The cool blues and … More Neke zajebancije

Topim se kraj svijeće natopljen tugom, neopažen prolazim svojom lukom. Topimo se skupa ja i svijeća dok brodarimo u dolini cvijeća.   Otopljeni tepamo vremenu da vrati se i odtopi, ali neće jer druga šansa ne postoji.   Otopljen pred potopom svoje luke gledam kako ljubav sklizne iz ruke. Otopila se i otišla i ona … More ODLAZAK

English Translation Tell me your dreams,let them touch me.Touch my hand.Before we fall asleep,tell me—do you like tenderness?Show me the paths.Feel my gazes resting on you.Fill my body with hope.Believe in us like a kissthat smiles back at us.Vastness and clouds,a summer full of love.A part of our memory,one you and one me.Show me the … More SHOW ME THE PATHS ✨

Sa svakom od tih djevojaka kod kojih sam u nekom trenutku pomislio da sam „skoro dovoljan“, ali ipak nedovoljno — nedovoljno zabavan, nedovoljno visok, nedovoljno samouvjeren, nedovoljno fin, nedovoljno hrabar, nedovoljno „ono što one zapravo traže“. Svaka takva priča završila je na kraju s nekom varijacijom tihe spoznaje: „nije to to“.I hvala Bogu da nije.Da … More Drago mi je što nije uspjelo. Iskreno, sa svima.
