Artist

Step by step in the world of banalities, heroism, empathy, egoism, love, envy, stupidity and knowledge of infinity in a fleeting moment. This is the world of my paintings. Searching for truth in a world where no one wants to be what they are, where everyone wants to be someone else. Where timeless and timed worlds alternate, which will be lost in the abyss of age. Values ​​both permanent and banal emotions. Which ones are actually important? Painting as a sign that affects our life many times more than law, sign and sign as an important part of our being. Art as an application of belonging to one’s own, to one’s tribe of humanity, art as part of communication and identification of common features, thinking, the idea of ​​searching and finding in the corners of the mind and infinity. For the sake of tradition, or actually against it, because the globe is round. And what is progress on one side is regression on the other. What is crazy today may be commonplace tomorrow. The harsh reality of the street, the fatal, senseless and meaningful reality is the most vivid and natural statement of a person about his existence.
