I feel somehow intimidated with richness of the world with which I have happened to get into a sort of discourse. The shapes, colours, sounds, and ideas make a perfectly organised, logical sequence of images.

The focal point of my interest and fascination is the more or less accessible reality. Its mechanisms impress me with their precision, simplicity, and variety, making an everlasting source of inspiration and artistic experience.

Even though the formal arrangements are often an outcome of my studies on mutual impacts of colours and light or my composition concepts, man and nature still remain the main topic of my work.

The continuous changes and transformations taking place in our surroundings and also in ourselves contributed to the origin of the complex, multi-thread cycle of METAMORPHOSES.

Evade poets

They're pretenders

They say

the whole world can be locked

into a drop

of imagination
