House with trees Print

Acrylic, thread and yarn on paper mounted on fabric. Ready to hang. I left my birthplace many years ago. Since then I've changed places, languages and homes. In "Home is where..." series I deal with the theme of home, immigration and memories, the loss of the familiar and adjustment to new conditions. In these mixed media works I’m crossing a boundary between drawing, painting and sculpture. These works are hybrids of visually accurate representation and physical process of ripping, braking and constructing. I create them using packing materials which represent moving, yarn and thread which represent connection, knots for remembering and ripped areas for time and memories. I rework photographs and drawings with acrylic mediums, leaving a skin-like texture. They become "plastic duplicates" of memories, objects, and places. Ordinary objects become transformed into precious carriers of experience and emotion. The surface is sealed with a coating of acrylic medium for decay resistance. But metaphorically the process of applying layers of the medium represents my personal layered world where different places and cultures are connected to each other.
