About The Artwork

The idea for the series of graphics arises as a result of the earthquake that occurred in central Croatia in March 2020. The title itself suggests the earth's constant change, but also my attempt to draw a large number of straight lines on a natural material (aluminum), which is very resistant. It remains only as an idea, and I define the possibility and resistance of me as a human being against nature through confronting nature as a living being. Using the basic artistic element; I try to confirm my idea of a straight line with the point from which the line is formed, and the resistance to the natural material, but nature, for I don't know how many times, sends a very direct message that this is not possible. At every moment, despite maximum concentration, the line becomes and is uneven, like the natural disaster mentioned above, in which man sees his own fragility and, almost, insignificance compared to the mother, which we often define as the Earth.
