one of eleven

 

Life for me is like a jazz music, one play a note and the others respond, repetition and obscurity is integral part of it. Reality is just elusion that we create around us.

 Bronze age, Modern times, Dark Ages are all boxes of our state of mind and our actions. Time is not a clock going from one to twelve, it is going backward and forward. Nothing is only human state of mind and do not exist in our world - if the nothing will go we will have hope, something to live for: the space from the one to the other one. Above all do not try to understand this it , it is what I have to say and that is that.

Light is media that connects space and affects all other elements. Materials that react to light can create dynamic space. Light represents for me the hidden nature of the world, world that we can see but is different in time. Light and sound represent for me the dimension of time in my work..

Space - the physical space is the place where for me my art work is starting. I consider my art work in four dimensions 3 spatial and one in time. I create a situation that starts a process creating an unpredicted reality.

I project light follow by sound on walls and floors from different directions, removing our expectations and state of mind from film, video or art exhibition into a creation of new space, space that open our mind to the existence of other dimensions in our world.

Walking inside will be casting shadows on other objects in the space. I put into Question the orthodox understanding of three dimensions and two dimension art work: drawing, painting, Sculpture, video and sound. Having so many mediums in one space, put into debate the issue of “oversimplifying” and a minimal view of our world nature (You will not find lonely hospital bed in my work).

l believe as an artist that our world is very complex , so is my work . I just start the process in a define space creating new reality where the process starts.

Hidden dimensions
My aim it to try to bring out all the hidden or the ignored dimensions into the surface, mainly to redefine space and time over and over-from the same point. In time the metal will be affected by the outside conditions and the surface properties will change. I see my work in a form of installation showing how complex the world is even the simple things. My main aim is to show that simplicity is something we should not be looking for as a model as it is the root to ignorance. We can see how badly ignorance can be when it becomes part of our collective knowledge (Germany world war 2). So the Main aim is to create very” noisy” situation but harmonious in the same time a space that act like an orchestra.

Reality
What is reality? Can science give us any indication to the nature of reality? Can artist portrait reality? Can photographer deliver Copy of the reality? I do not have the answer, just the Questions.

The controlled starting point
I see myself as an artist that creates a situation where a process starts. I create a situation where few elements fuse together to create new perspective of reality in a control space, overload with information from many Dimensions.
