"Kroz umjetnost upoznajem sebe i stvarnost u kojoj živim"

Kroz umjetnost lakše sagledavam svijet u kojem živimo, doživljavam je kao prostor slobode, istine i kontakta sa sobom samom. Stvarnost u kojoj živimo propitkujem, a zatim podvrgavam novim pravilima. Krećem se u smjeru idealističke, duhovne umjetnosti. Često su mi rečenice koje svakodnevno čujem, događaji i ljudi ili druga umjetnička djela okidači za radove. Radim u ciklusima, a svaki novi ciklus donosi nov način rada.
Radim različitim materijalima, od željeza i kamena, gline i gipsa do tehnika na papiru i platnu, akril i ulje na platnu, a od umjetničkih stilova bliski su mi nadrealizam, simbolizam, pop art, organska apstrakcija i street art. Zanima me art terapija, planinarenje, rock muzika, etnoglazba, i te se teme provlače kroz moje radove u kojima zbog naizgled nespojivog kolažiranja motiva proizvodim dojam sličan onome iz sna ili podsvijesti.
Pokušavam komunicirati na iskonskom jeziku znakova razumljivom svim ljudima, pouzdajem se u jezik simbola i arhetipova te u snagu podsvjesnih simbola. Pokušavam raditi iz srca i osjećati to što radim. U tom smislu slijedim stope nadrealista, simbolista, primitivne umjetnosti i dječjeg crteža.

For me, it is easier to perceive the world we live in through art, because I experience art as space of freedom and truth, a possibility to stay in touch with myself. I question the reality we live in subjecting it to new rules. I stride towards idealistic and spiritual art. The sentences I hear every day, as well as events, people and other works of art often serve as triggers for my works. I work in cycles. Each cycle brings a new creative work.
I use different materials from iron, stone, clay and plaster, to techniques involving paper and canvas, acryl and oil on canvas. I get my inspiration from arts such as surrealism, symbolism, pop art, organic abstraction and street art. My other interests are art therapy, hiking, and world music which are integrated into my artwork. Due to seemingly incoherent patchwork of motifs, with my works I create an impression resembling a state of dream or unconsciousness.
I try to communicate in an ancient language of signs comprehensible to all people. Therefore I rely upon the language of symbols and archetypes, and the strength of subconscious symbols. I strive to work from my heart, and to feel the process within. In that sense, I follow the path of surrealists, symbolists, primitive art and children's drawings.
