My work aims at illustrating the ambiguity and relativity of perception: the way we look at the world building up an image of the whole from different parts and fragments, based on our emotional relationships with and intellectual experiences of any particular image. In perceiving we rely on the role of time and distance in this process of seeing without even being aware of this. My findings apply to the both - time and space as the dimensions that are invisible themselves but can be determined by the movement, changes and distance. I am particularly interested in applying my findings as painter to other media to synthesize new ones and to benefit from the synergy with the other media like drawing, photography, cinematography and installation.

My intention in working is to explore the issue of perception, toying with a point of view and a distance. Layering time and imagination onto momentary realities my work is developed through careful scrutiny of photographic sources. Every photograph contains information of "that-which-has-been". According to Roland Barthes, "Life / Death: the paradigm is reduced to a simple click, the one separating the initial pose from the final print". The process of translating and transforming from a photographic reality to the subjective expression of painting reveals new visual qualities as well as new spaces and a different understanding of time. Painting examines an extension of the ordinary act of looking and this process lies somewhere between aligning memory and evoking presence.
One of the most important areas of my interest in painting, which is in itself a time-consuming process, is the presence of simultaneous layers of reality and imagination, allowing paintings to be viewed as records or repositories of time.

The photographs I chose to develop into further visual exploration also question the issues of control and unpredictability, to the extent that information received through the camera lens offers the possibility, not just of direct documentation, but also of creating a brand new image. As Walter Benjamin stated, "With the close-up, space expands; with slow motion, movement is extended.
The enlargement of a snapshot does not simply render more precise what in any case was visible, though unclear: it reveals entirely new structural formations of the subject."
Looking is the first step of communication, defining one's location and position.
I am interested in a possibility to convey something that is elusive into physical existence and
a form of communication where the visual understanding helps identify the process of creating relationships.
