ARTIST STATEMENT

In my works I focus on the role and effects of the photographic medium in our life. Combining different genre features and technical specifics, I strive to reveal new aspects to explore the nature of photography through the culture, history, remembrance, and the built and tangible heritage. I use an abstract and sometimes symbolic language. I deal with photographic features such the ability of reproduction, mapping the world around us and recalling our memories.
