"We are living the period of an anti-utopia in real time and the deconstruction of reality as a method comes to the fore, gives the author an opportunity to make some understanding of this most unfamiliar present. As Don Juan taught in his mythology, to see and understand how a leaf falls from a tree, one should tilt one's head differently and perhaps realize that it moves in other planes and trajectories. The desire to deconstruct and reassemble the symbols of time is aimed at trying to understand them and to find points of support, whether it is belonging, detachment or escape from new images and meanings. For some it is support, for others it is rejection, as a starting point for one's reflection on this very "here and now" and finding one's own personal coordinates.

I work with objects, installations, cyclic animations and participate in performative practices. My work is based on deconstructing images and reflections on dichotomies, conformism and trauma."
