I am sitting on the bus, watching the driver in the mirror, I see myself as the driver.
where’s the blue jacket? (the question is directed at the owner), canvas+acrylic+glitter+felt, 80 X 30 cm
a guy, friendly like a motherfucker, asks me (the address)
the jacket caught in our minds is suspended between us
we meet, that’s what’s in the picture
the blue jacket is pinned to the canvas in the back, but if you show it to the viewer, it’s no good
we’re open to each other, as if there is no door between us, just like people should be with each other
larch slope play, canvas+acrylic enamel+acrylic, 30 X 40 cm
summertime on the hill under the larch
the ground is covered by soft grass and needles from the larch
a warm summer storm is approaching
there is no sense of time, nature’s force is coming closer
I am resting by the tree
the truth lies on the other side of the hole
fruit talking hahaha, relief object, light bulbs+felt tip pen+canvas, 40 x10 x 50cm
“yellow” thought and “red” emotion run into each other on a path, and finally merge together to create blue. thought is selfish, only paying attention to its own ideas, emotion is happiness and love. joined together, they form a human being.
this picture is a gift.
a luminous picture as a form of communication which allows one to move from one point to another.
vast, object, cardboard+wood+pink pong ball, 30 x 10 x 30cm
broad landscape, mapped with a point. the point I want can be a concept, a thing, an event: the crow on the roof, running into an old schoolmate. the meeting, the calling, the experience, the thanking, it doesn’t matter if I’m awake or dreaming, imagining it.
what is this? (holder for everything), object, wood+fabric+acrylic enamel+hinge, 75 x 15 x 10cm how to look at object – on video
a device which I can use to weigh things down or retain everything, but it won’t necessarily work every time. it is either placed on the stairs or fixed at an angle, seeming as if suspended in the air.
at this moment, it is holding some vividly colored fabric.
the silverware almost half-disappears, drawing, paper+felt tip pen, 30 x 20cm
a set dining table with incomplete, unclear utensils, the missing pieces are disappearing, the lines and edges of the dining set are becoming blurred.
monkey business, painting, 70x70x20 cm, canvas/acrylic enamel/spoon/glue, the painting is propped against the wall, next to the room where we rest
a gorilla comes out of the bush into civilization, where it is disciplined
it knows what it must / it is what it is
a marionette, independent and sovereign
the thread holds the shape of dreams
Turn the antenna, object, 50x15x15 cm, wood/plastic/wire/foil/acrylic enamel/glass, the object is wedged into a hole in the floor
the nightly vibration of people fucking
Turn, the cursed gypsy castle
Night has fallen, c’mon show me a good time (Kaotične duše)
She’s like heroin (Majke)
alone, how to look at an object – on video, canvas/mirror/metal hinge/glue, 25x43x2 cm, the object is placed on the floor
flow mind released & no tnx needed
I don’t need any confirmation, everything I want is already taking place
the canvas is the rational mind, the mirror is the flipside (dreams, the unconscious, intuition)
swallow us, object, 10 x 20 x 14 cm, crystal pyrite/plastic pyramid/photo paper/glue, the object is placed in a room, where we do not expect it
thought becomes fact
juicy refreshed pleasure into infinity
pyrite is the crystal of the intellect and protection, standing on a plastic pyramid
ass walk, painting, 50 x 40 x 10 cm, canvas/graffiti spray/rope/plastic balls/acrylic enamel
good looks squeeze the sweat right out of the skin
the yellow summer and hanging out on the nude beach
