DETAIL CLICHÉ 2003

… About stencil…
The formed plate became commonplace. Camera obscura impressed and fixed itself. The image exists on the film, in the brain or reproduction, to be then reproduced as a series. It was sold slowly, slowly, little by little, in detail, in small quantities, by piece. The quantity won the playground. …For NOT being able to measure the set of all points situated at equal distance from THE SAME fixed point… THE SAME space can be observed from a fixed point and it might appear to be changed only because it is given a different form, aspect, behavior (about time, space, weather) or it is dressed up with different clothes then those worn before. The space known for a long time ago can MOVE, can change its aspect, character and behavior.
The mediating person has the role of negotiating and of creating the piece to be replaced instead of the identical one, but worn-out, of the mechanism.
The space created again within a DIFFERENT one is motivated by the existence of the DETAIL or reflex, to help the objective and universal form of matter, that has the aspect of a CEASELESS whole with three dimensions and expresses the order of the real world’s objects coexistence – POSITION, DISTANCE, DIMENSION, FORM or their extension.
The place that surrounds us, where this is a souvereign of time and lapse of time or SETTLING and INTERVAL, can be DETAILED in order not to become CLICHÉ.

GOOD TASTE&FOR SALE 2001
An ironic, incisive project that borders on kitsch and spiritual values and “rhetorically debates” the aim of art in a consumer society, where “money&rdquo and kitsch dominate. The images/the works are visually aggressive through juxtaposition and by attacking the beauty of certain subjects, “sensitive”, too much worn out, through incisive stamping of the announcement-slogan FOR SALE and GOOD TASTE.
