In my work I am dealing with systems of knowledge, language and signification. My constant concern is in the relationship between perception and reality, between the ability to see something and the ability to represent it. My work takes the form of large-scale drawings, sculpture, photographs and installations: it explores the nature of understanding through scientifically constructed systems and free associative thinking.
The symptoms of a loss and a renewal are present in my work. Graphite drawings entitled Information Loss describe the idea of the gradual loss of information: the loss of signal from the original stimulus, where things become defused and even corrupted. The loss is represented by a yellow line, which is traveling through the black structure until its disappearance. In the fourth piece from the series, Information Loss IV, the material of black tape stuck on the wall gives the whole structure a sense of no gravity.
Possibility of a renewal or chance for a new pattern is proposed in the digitally created drawings Three Rules and Change where the stages of growth are represented by the lines determined by the three rules. Hypothetically their growth is resulting in the effect that the whole image plane is covered by a single color.
A recent work entitled Winding fuses these afore mentioned concepts with personal biography of a garden where I have spent my childhood that is now getting destroyed. This recent installation piece is an act of healing, where adhesive tape is carefully rewound multiple times around several pieces of two branches of a tree. When the work is shown, accompanying the branches with adhesive tape in the space is a sound recording of the activity of making the work. Acknowledging and attempting to heal a sense of loss, is set against the absurd act of rewinding the tape as a memento of an unavoidable loss.
