    True | 2009

My work deals with a truth. A truth as an absolute value, truth as being everyday part of one´s life, a truth as an visionary system declared by modernistic -isms. I create my own language from geometric shapes and I play with different figures of a truth. Applied shapes of triangle, circle and square symbolize the truth. Halves of the shapes represent half-truths. The empty area stands for a lie. I am interested in what a truth can be like, how it can be deformed or misused. This is illustrated upon twenty small picture formats of 50 x 50 cm size. Out of the preemptive shapes I made up an alphabet. I use it to compile cut and dry statements in common situations of one´ s human life (E.g. „I am right. “) These statements form objects cutting edge – weapons of truth.
