Virtual presentation in real space

Private Office* / Mein Konto (My Account)

The language of the virtual "private office" usually imitates the language of human relationships. Yet in this online space for paying your bills figures of speech move from the realm of ethics to economics. And expressions that belong to the lexicon of  the "private office"—like "personalized experience," "credit due," and "own account"—grow light and meaningless, turning into abstractions.

Large Landscape. Through other themes

Act of liberation*

“The Painting” is constituted of a long horizontal line stretching along the wall, repeating the contours of the exhibition hall (it
symbolizes infinity, and hence should be viewed in slow and focused movement; beginning and end lose all meaning), spatial
tridimensional objects placed in the center of the hall (a large vertical parallelepiped, a cube, a pyramid, etc.), and modules of
various sizes, including the smallest, that look as if fragments of a painting have acquired volume.

Questioning the Visible* (with Vlada Ralko). Paintings, works on paper from the Time of War series 

Speaking of the obvious tends to be the most difficult thing of all.

Most frequently, the visible adapts to a finished schema. Uncomfortable details blurred by generalisation, the ascertained morphs into the abstract. Rationality hooks onto established values of humanity.

The artist is sometimes asked whether he will continue creating or exhibiting a particular work in the future. The question is actually whether the author owns his work. Moreover, it is about an artist being able to control the fate of his work, or fate in general. The time happens to act as a key that activates a previously created work or gives it volume so that previously hidden dimensions appear.
