ARTIST STATEMENT
“Being originated from digital and electronic media environment, images of my works, have, in my opinion, too many “noises” that conceal the laconic beauty of an object, whether a flower or a gorgeous woman head. In my eyes and hands objects undergo a process of refinement and transformation in an absolute form, sometimes to a symbol. The color palette, going through the same processes, shakes off all shades like understatements, and the local color gains its strongest sound, with all elements fatally interdependent. All forms are filled up with their new bright texture. Therefore, what was just a moment caught by a camera, now attains new, everlasting, bright life in color, wood, acryl. “
