The set of works entitled "Faces" stands as an antithesis to the curatorial practice of conceptualized and coherent art settings. The author through a series of portraits that represent autonomous and disjointed thought units impulsively touch on various topics such as self-questioning, nostalgia, animalism and associative recording of psychological states. Accordingly, eleven the works presented in the Vagon gallery are the product of various artistic researches created in the past two years. Although they are connected by a basic motif, a portrait, they insist on the fragmentation of the setting within which each work can be completely self-sufficient. Regardless of such a starting point, the installation incorporates all the elements of the artist's work so far process, technically and conceptually, and as such stands on the border between the author's previous work and new breakthroughs.
"While artistically rounded and concise stories created in the form of cycles or long research work successfully communicate certain complex ideas, the question remains where is the place for those ideas that are simple, autonomous and not yet subject to sorting into larger units, and in despite all that, they still manage to carry with them an essential artist's note. I noticed that lately I don't like the practice within which the presentation must be complete a developed conceptual proposition of the work, which often needs to be clearly set for a year days before the exhibition itself. In case the proposition is not sufficiently developed, sometimes the curator himself he enters with his ideas into the semantic framework of the work in order to upgrade and adapt it for successful presentation. However, what about the author's basic impulse and needs so-called visual arts, those branches of artistic activity that are completely can lead with an artistic narrative. What if the verbalization of work takes more away from work than it does from it adds and thus closes it to the free interpretation of the audience. Art as such is inevitable she must have the freedom to be who she is, without the need for inclusion being imposed on her some generally known conceptual entity. My art often comes from the small, fragmented the idea as such must be sufficient in itself. This exhibition fulfills my need to that extent to get rid of and process such ideas and to ultimately allow each image to indirectly communicates with the observer. As an artist, I want to create beautiful things and explore the limits within which what we do not conventionally perceive as beautiful can be represented through beautiful artistic language. Such an uncompromising artistic path is possible for me in the Gallery Vagon.“
