Scotiabank Toronto 02 - Nail Studios Wooden Shacks Painting

Collage - Montage "There is no way around art, art is the way" projects - artrecycle | paperplaining | collaboration with artists Since 1994 I am coordinating the project "artrecycle"- global network - drawings on paper - recycling of art. "Give the paintings a second chance"- drawings, destined for the trash - the "forgotten paintings" are collected and used as material for collages, objects or installations. I love the lightness of paper, my favoured art material for paintings, collages, sculptures and installations. Mostly I am working on those projects - artrecycle and paperplaining - collaboration with artists. Through the cooperation with other artists I have developed the idea of "collages of individual ideas". Painting with fragments of "daily news". As a medium, I prefer daily newspaper paper. The information and images in the newspapers provide me with the background for my artistic work. When it comes to visual design, my motivation comes from changing what is given, using the necessary resulting artistic stylistic means. This approach can be described as "crossover". A method of conscious and unconscious work steps that leads directly to the necessary image statement, the image content. I would like to describe my work process and the result as - The Awakening of the Dream, Remembering the Future.
