Artist on her work
I perform in representational and abstract form.Betwen miniature and monumental records. Between analysis, complication of the form and synthesis. I am deeply involved in regarding and viewing things and phenomena from the side of meaning and belonging. I "translate" these phenomena and things into a symbolic language by means of different kinds of signs and contemporary hieroglyphs. These signs and symbols I use are those which accompnay our everyday life, which are easily recognized and understandable as long as they exist in their "natural environment" ie: read signs , music notes , phonetic symbols in text analysis and "big " is elephant, "gold" means richness , and "loud " means ""shout". I cut them out from their original background and present them, accompanied by symbols " from another tale or nature" adding my own encoded language of simple forms. I create in this way in series of pictures and silkscreens called " Exorcisms " which has its own specific atmosphere and poetry.
