Drawings made from Luka`s (Luka Popovic) photographs from 1956-68. Leitmotif and the love of his life is Jelisaveta. These drawings speaks of a past that we tend to idealize. It is a place where we run away. I used photographs of Luka Popovic (which was found in the apartment where I live) to create a universal image memory. They look as if you already have seen in old family albums or in the old movies ... So I tried to create them to belong to everyone's memories.

My recently started project is based on found photographs, documents and diary of a Mr Luka Popovic. The diary was written during the Second World War, when Luke was 15 years old. He started to deal with photography in 1952 until 1980.

For almost 10 years, I have been implementing the "Myth of the Constructor" project, which deals with the culture of memory. From the perception of personal (found and discarded) artefacts of the unknown citizen Luka Popović and his wife Jelisaveta, through the questioning of my own heritage and ancestors, oral traditions and family legends, artistic or public cultural heritage, such as the life and work of the artist Nadežda Petrović, or a legacy of diferent local tradition. I also play with styles, eras, traditions and contemporary practices - techniques, collective memory, archetypal forms, sensory experiences, sprituality, mythology, history (etc.) in relation to contemporary social circumstances. Permeating different narratives from the past in the context of the present day, I try to produce new experiences for the observer who, contrary to the current trend of artistic practices, returns to the ancent searching for the beauty of the world, healing, nature and humanism.
