"Light my fire" Sculpture

I am an artist currently living and working in Germany. My primary artistic media are painting and sculpture. I'm drawn to narratives about human relationships, often inspired by family stories, whether mine or others'. Despite our similarities, it's a deeply personal journey. My art aims for a humorous, life-affirming perspective, exploring modern subcultures and urban life. My goal is to create life-affirming art, and that's why I want my art to be perceived with humor. I am also interested in life with its modern subcultures and what surrounds me in urban spaces. Now I speak more about my life and memories, whereas before, I created emotions. My art in 2025 is more complex in terms of color; it is created under the conditions of stress, war, and the consequences of the pandemic. The change of country and paradigm, the shift in values, and, ultimately, age. What I go through as part of society enriches me and is reflected. I'm actually more receptive to the outside world and more vulnerable to life in general. In the last 2-3 years, I feel a stronger connection to my childhood and my children. In the sense that they now live far from me, and I (a new person in Berlin) perceive myself and them as a whole. It's as if I got lost between my memories and my perception of my children. It's like I am them, and they are me. Such a story. I think it's related to my move; Berlin strongly resembles my hometown, where I grew up. I am very comfortable here, and there is a constant sentimental feeling about events that have already been experienced.
