ABOUT THE ARTWORK

From "The Hug" series. In this series of works my intent was to neutralize the feeling of love and longing from the specific subject that evoke it. Although we always love, hate, miss someone or something specific, the only thing that really "belongs" to us and remains with us is the feeling itself. Actually that's what we are - the compilation of our feelings, accumulated during lifetime. For me the answer to a question "Who am I?" is: "I'm loving", "I'm missing", "I'm sad" etc... The other theme is: if it's not you, that doesn't matter that much what to hug with...

I make collages from magazine clippings for almost 20 years. Once a friend gave me his “Playboy” and “Hustler” collections, because he didn’t need them anymore. I also didn’t quite know what to do with all this stuff... So I started to cutting out pictures and to combining them into funny compositions. I had no better idea at that time. Then, I began to look for ways to make bigger compositions - I have always liked large scaled projects. This is how the technique in which I work till this day was born - using scraps of magazine pages instead of brushes and paints: Journal painting. I am very interested in human feelings, relationships, people and myself. This is my unlimited material for creativity. In my collages I'm trying to create a perfect, exciting, beautiful world of my own, using what is. In every possible meaning of the word.
