I call my genre "Motto Art" or "Motivationalism".

I take mottoes, proverbs, famous quotes or collocations and convert them into symbolic pictures. Usually every word has its own symbol. Some of them look like pictograms while the others are similar to recognizable symbols of modern life.

I like to think that my works are the coats of arms of Modern Age, new symbols of movement and energy, which have the same function as old blazons and banners.

They inspire. They call. They make people move. They always remind us of life's endless cycle.
