In this artwork, I've channeled a blend of realism and primitivism to critique and reflect on the commercialization of identity. Using cool blue tones and stark, simple lines, the piece juxtaposes the intimate nature of a passport photo against the impersonal, commercial framework suggested by the advertisement aesthetic. It invokes reflection on how personal identity is commodified and the implications of being reduced to a product in a consumerist society. This painting will bring a thought-provoking and conversation-starting energy into any space.

Works with the theme of memory and discoveries within it through the conflict of personal and official history, social criticism, labor relations. For the last years he has been actively involved in land art. The last affected his view and perception of the landscape to some extend and helped him to open a new method of interaction with space, the rejection of object-subject relations with the environment and the inclusion of space not as a part but as a participant in the interaction in his works also actualizing the topics of ecology and overproduction. But the golden thread of his artistic practice remains the theme of memory, recollection and oblivion. He uses the following media: installation, photography, painting, participatory and performative practices, archives, land art.
