INCIDENT 2006

A project that examines social/emotional/ethical/spiritual/educational problems.
INCIDENT began with a series of paintings dealing with the concept of “evolution”, the image of fire being the solution found in this respect.
P.S.“ passing through the fire is a condition of elevating to an upper level of existence...”

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” 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.
