Artist Statement
I believe that nothing is impossible, we just undiscovered all solutions yet. I am looking for a dialogue between the dimensions of reality and analyze the multiplicity of views. I broaden my perspective by putting myself in unconventional situations, in which my lonely travels to distant places help me the most.
An important issue in my analysis is the connection of human with its own nature and the surrounding world. I am being interested in the human journey in discovering one's own identity and perspectives of perceiving reality drawn from psychology, oneirism, shamanism and cosmocentrism.
I adapt reality emotionally - I am particularly affected by the problems of the modern world. Art is a language that speaks to the depths of our consciousness, opens the dimension of sensitivity and allows me to perceive the imperceptible. I treat my artworks as pieces of a puzzle to connect societies with inner wisdom.
