Art Statement
Our world, our civilization is woven from ideas and images.
This miracle, created by billions of lives, is often perceived as granted, and only in rare moments of consciousness we are lightened by the genius – his creator. We’re increasingly dependent on our creations, our life is already a symbiotic relationship.
The technique and mechanics wrap and swing us in a cozy comfort, taking us away from our primary environment. It always amazes me the way that mankind has driven in transformation of the world that surrounds us and how has it been changed in our search of comfort.
How from the idea of overcoming the space easily, we create machines and how the need for this function takes shape.
My paintings are an attempt to touch this process of creation, collection and maturation of one form. The elements are intertwining and start living in the community. It is already, to a large extent, one new world, in which if we look, we can find the hidden harmony, dictating overall action.
