ARTIST STATEMENT

In my work I like to experiment with combining different elements into a single unit. Elements can be images, objects, information, as well as other artists and their art, other fields, whole communities, and so on. I wonder how in construction of the unexpected, alternative schemes of these elements a new meaning is being born. I imagine my works as abstract systems which are filled up with content over time. Often the original vision of my ideas may change, and that's what is interesting for me: the study of how the elements of the whole influence each other and the general movement, and what problems I face in the way of implementation of the project.
