Artist statement: Millennials is the term for a roughly defined demographic of people born between 1980 and 2000. This generation, often proclaimed to be the next ‘important generation’, prefers to be called ‘the millennial generation’. They have been described as lazy, spoiled, materialistic and unemployed. They are reflection of the generation before them, but do they have a right to be cynical towards both the system and the aforementioned characterisation? Although self-confident and brought up to believe that they can achieve anything, they suffer from ‘ambitions inflation.’ At the same time, their heightened desires are accompanied by unrealistic expectations. These models of behavior can be attributed to the developed post- industrial informatics capitalism of the Western-European and North-American type, while the questions as to what degree can this influence be left in Eastern-European and non-Western societies remain. The subjects of the photographs pose as fictional victims of this transition. The solemn sense of drama is part of a seemingly banal scene – young men and women at a private party. By portraying the banal as sublime, and alluding to religious themes, the melodramatic rapture translated into a contemporary scene based on artistic historical examples, the omnipresence of melancholy, apathy and helplessness is emphasised. - Igor Ilic
