LJUBAV I BOL   Rabljena vozila umova, razbijena tržišta mozgova. Kriza tragova k boljim svjetlima. Nadanja i lutanja sve u jednim mislima.   Na obroncima oblaka, težnja k visinama. Sitne duše ispod krovova, lavovi u nama, agresija u šakama, šminka pod očima.   Ljubav i bol, molim te, odrasti.   Mrtva priroda ne pomaže. U … More Povratak Matea Balabana

KIŠA     I kiša je umorna, ima sijede od padanja. Pala bi prema gore, ali je umorna od pokušavanja. Tako slaba padne pred mene, ja je dignem i kažem: ne boj se. To je samo put, ali i pad je let, posut je trnjem i nije svet. Dok gleda me umorna, ovako mala i … More Mateo razmišlja… nedjelja je 4.1.2026. u 14:24

ATLAS LJUBAVI     Letim i bojim se da ne dotaknem oblake. Dirati u njihov plan nije moj san.   Atlas ljubavi što složio si, ja pokušavam razumjeti. I dok pokušavam shvatiti, Ti nemoj odustati od mene, od mene.   Otisnuti se iz luke nije lako, ali vodi me. Ti znaš kako. Posramiti se neću … More Tko smo mi?

LUTAK   Nisam više ono što te upotpunjava, moje srce nije rob, nisam lutak na žicama. Ne dopuštam više ono, ono što si sanjala. Stvarnost me je sustigla na brzim krilima.   Kap tuge u moru nepravde. Okupan lažima, pokušavam ustati, ali žao mi je, previše sam lijen da bih bio ispunjen. Sreća nadohvat ruke, … More Nešto blizu tebe

ONA Ona nema ime.Ona ocvala uz njega.Sluša operu i kulturno se uzdiže.On kraj nje u kazalištu.Oboje slušaju note,nota u sebi nemaju. Barem ne skupa. Njene note dur,njegove mol.Ona počinje iz violinskog ključa,on je ključeve izgubio. Do kad ćeš tako, draga moja?

Mateo Balaban’s “Rain Bordo” doesn’t just hang on a wall—it detonates across it. This piece is pure adrenaline translated into paint, a visual symphony where electric greens clash and dance with deep magentas and burgundies in a way that shouldn’t work but absolutely does.What sets this work apart is its remarkable duality. Up close, it’s … More “Rain Bordo” – A Masterclass in Controlled Chaos

I appreciate this modern abstract expressionist piece. The vibrant color palette – dominated by burgundy reds, electric blues, bright yellows, and touches of cyan – creates an explosive energy that radiates from what appears to be a central focal point. The work demonstrates confident gestural brushwork with paint seemingly flung or dripped in multiple directions, … More Bullshit

The painting by Mateo Balaban, known as Rain Bordo, exudes a dynamic tension between chaos and structure — a visual symphony of color and rhythm that challenges the viewer to find meaning within abstraction. Dominated by intense shades of red, deep purples, and flashes of green, the composition unfolds like a topographical map of emotion … More Ah that Rain

Rain Bordo’s Living Room: A Fever Dream in Pink That Refuses to Apologize 1. The pink walls look like Pepto-Bismol had an emotional breakdown and decided to redecorate. 2. That abstract painting above the fire? It’s like Kandinsky got drunk with a toddler and said, “Let’s make chaos fashionable.” 3. The gold mirror and yellow … More Roast
