Artist's Statement
Earlier artistic activities
I have worked with experimental short films and photography field since 2011. Abroad, the award-winning my work has been as of the same year.
Initially with photos and from 2013 with experimental short films - short film festivals around the globe. Besides this, my work is in several foreign collections.
At the actual Academy of Fine Arts education (sculptor, 1997) there was no harm at all - on the contrary. "The film is a carving of time - Andrei Tarkovski". When rotating a classical sculpture, the observation changes step by step - just as the movie changes momentarily.
In fact, this theme of change ultimately led to the film and esspecially to experimental short films - the perception of getting
blown away with curious inventions.
