Archaeology: Proposal for a public monument 4 Drawing

Born on 18 th of August 1981.

All my works are defined by duality: on one hand at a first sight they illustrate a myth, a story, a legend; on the other hand, they are comments on contemporary events or life concepts. For example, Archeology: Portable Archaeology 4 illustrate the society for which art has no meaning, Archeology: Road to Ithaca represents a metaphor of the obstacles we must face with, just as Ulysses did,to make our dreams come true, while Archeology: Pandoras Box could be seen as a definition of lack of hope that seems to characterize a part of our society.
The dual character has its origin in the inspiration sources, considering that first of all, on my list of sources stands archaeology and then follow the marks of the present time . I make use of archaelogical fragments bearing in mind a simple reasoning people usually leave something behind, a piece of memory more or less important , therefore I use the left-overs of a certain past ( the ancient times ). I chose to reassembly them according to a modern context ( for example the association with the TV or with the suffocation of everyday stress ), because it usually goes this way a track of the way we live our lives remains somewhere, isolated or not, even we consider memory fragile and ephemere. And this legacy is kept intact (the best proof is an archaelogical discovery), due to a fact called hope, a small element that makes us dream of how would be to change the world, actually a constant dream of the human kind, a dream that repeats and a dream that makes us see the world different at a different level of evolution.
Moreover, I use techniques that prove I focus on the quality of my art, a technique that bears a resemblance to the classical art and in the same time it brings the influence of the contemporary art, because I like to explore art in a complete way. Furthermore, this is how I understood to highlight the fact that the time line is so fragile and there does not exist a strict border between times.
