Family Drawing

As an artist I am more inclined to practice than theory. I dedicate my work – directly or indirectly – to a human being and its inner world. And for me emotional aspects have higher priority over rational as well. I’m strongly concerned about the issues of an Individual and the problems of its simultaneous isolation from and connection to the outer world, its fragile integrity on the edge between order and chaos – and the resulting state of loneliness and everyday loss. But I always rely on my own experience and find it barely possible to speak for everyone. The main source of my works is life itself – and also music as an auxiliary source. Music always played an invaluable part in my life. Most of my works are being created to the sounds of music, the choice of colour and the structuring of composition largely depend on the playing rhythms and melodies. Like acoustic waves, the lines and shapes that I use are usually curved and the composition – dynamic. I work in diverse media and use various materials and techniques, but above all, I prefer using paper. As an expressive medium, possessing specific texture and being able to stay whole or be cut into pieces and then reconstructed, it reflects my major themes in a best way and allows me to reach and express a wider emotional range. It may be even said, that I paint with paper - rather than colors.
