Waiting for the light
Foam-Mo
14 x 9 cm, 2020
My works feature images of imaginary landscapes, empty or inhabited by unknown beings – landscapes that externalize to constant inner struggle of being human, that visualizes conflict between good and evil, between light and darkness … hence, the best way to describe my work is – landscapes inhabited by the self, where a step forward is eternal light and a step backwards is total darkness, a realm that is both personal and universal, and something I would like to share with the world.
A constant theme of my work is the common experience of all living things as manifested in nature, the universe (or universes) and the infinite worlds and dimensions about which we know nothing, towards which biology, science, art try grapple … in a word, LIFE
