My simple ideas are a kind of crossing point between daily life and fantasy, though I try to create works that belong to neither. Many of my installations are temporary. This is part of my belief that the value is not in the artwork itself rather in the relations it generates. I prefer to work in the field of the object, the installation, photography and drawing, often utilizing the circumstances and the challenges of the specific site and environment. I develop my projects as an attempt to understand and explain to myself the Global World. The titles are important for understanding most of my works. pravdo.com 74
