  • Biography
    My art is my guide in my search for the meaning of life and the truth that drives me along this path. I look at life through art, and art through life. I create intuitively, often without any preconceived plan. Love, fear, empathy are the basic drivers of my creative process, which almost always lasts briefly. I express myself quickly, daily, and my work is always the result of instrospection, which takes place on both conscious and subconscious levels. Wassily Kandinsky in his book `` Spirituality in Art '' says: Every artist is a child of his time, and his art is the mother of his emotions. In my case, only this second part is true. When one communicates information and connects it to logical structures, it does so within the confines of an emotional-spiritual layer. Or to put it more simply: we recognize the world first with emotions, feelings, and only then with thoughts. So is my art. The spectator first feels it, then has time to think about it. I fight with my art against many of the wrong values in our society resulting from materialism, consumerism, capitalism. Modern man strives for power, but it is false power. Our main purpose has become earthly perfection.
Perfection can only be pursued by a man who knows and comes into contact with his spiritual dimension. Spirituality is union with God (cosmos) , and it manifests in a feeling of love that is not directly related to anything earthly and that continues to exist even when the earthly is destroyed. My touch with the spiritual dimension began with the Awakening of Conciousness cycle. In that cycle, I address the issues of the individual within the collective consciousness. During that process, I also find out what my life earthly purpose is, which I have been striving for all my life. My truth is God. For the first time, I feel all divine in and around myself and transfer my knowledge to the canvases through the two cycles of Awakening Consciousness and Endless Poetry of Movement. I get to know Eastern culture, religion and philosophy more and more, every day I see salvation and answers in it, not only for myself, but for others. Modern man does not know how to be happy and is never satisfied. Always striving for more and better, living in a society that builds its moral, ethical values on the wrong principles. Buddhism and other Eastern religions give very serious answers to many of the problems we face today. through my work I emphasize the value of individual progress, which I consider the most important step for making the society better. I call my work my spiritual autoportaits.
