Vanja Vania

I am inspired by the constant change in contemporary society, all phenomena related to the man and his relationship with the environment.
Man is a perfectly vulnerable individual. This beautiful paradox of his fate is the object of my interest. I try to materialize time in my paintings, this fracture of memory and the beauty of decadence.
My artistic approach is based on the constant upgrade of the form. This process does not imply the act of finishing the work, giving it the mask of beauty and sophistication. The process is the work itself, unburdened by decorations, ready to endure the new painted layer. It does not criticize anything, it only marks.
