Pages, Boards, Surfaces
A “Relative Explanations” cycle of works shown on chalkboards, blueprints, various pages, poster-sized rolls of paper, smaller cards, or the rooms. Surfaces, covered with cursive notes, hurried handwriting, indecipherable formulas and signatures, schematic sketches, maps, and graphs — all merging to reveal a pattern of layered system.
Pages
Individual sheets with drawings, silhouettes of parts of figures or unrecognizable objects imprinted on them as if faded in the sunlight. Random signatures on the sheets look as if they were arranged on the layout of the book, but on the other hand, they are enlarged fragments of chalkboards.
Brown Cards
The precise lines, circles and mathematical figures evoke the feeling of technical drawings or blueprints. They seem to express geometric relationships, probably exploring some architectural or procedural concept.
ATLAS 21.22.23
“ATLAS 21.22.23” cycle, 120 sheets. Layers of black matte cardboard, chalk, white gel ink, mechanical cut, mechanical drawing, floating support, 29,7×40cm. 2022—On Going.
Structures of the Sky: Clouds
Clusters of clouds and the tensions between them, sun glare and light dust flying in the air. The constant movement of units of the sky when observed for long periods of time can exhibit an ordered, mathematically calibrated structure.
ATLAS
We try to figure out how to bring everything together in a certain system. There must be some general rules, something that works as a part of the whole system. I think I have discovered a relationship. It may not be immediately visible, but I will try to explain. No, no, not there, on the other side. Wait a minute.
Total Timeline
We tend to think the moment is almost invisible by the common human perception of time because of the tiny amount of space it’s taking on a timeline. Therefore, our culture is often split in half by the question: should we rely on the moment or not, if it’s that notably small? By combining the ‘Mapping of the Emptiness’ and ‘Relative Explanations’ methods, daily used in the Inner School of Open Studies, we can zoom in and freeze one random moment for a few days. Probably, it will allow us to make some assumptions about what is happening between of reaching and leaving the moment.
Blackboards
A series of drawings from a fragment of an endless blackboard, layers of someone’s ideas, stories and sequential systems are captured by the frame of the paper format, suggesting the lack of boundaries of the original blackboard.
Blackboard Structures
Layers of black matte canvas, white pencil, chalk, and staples. Various sizes. 2021—Ongoing
Surfaces
Walls and floors, wooden frame structures covered with layers of black primed canvases or sections of paper rolls, with chalk and pencil drawings on the surfaces.
Heads and Thoughts
A series of drawings over an image of a person. Diagrams, signs and connecting objects cover the head of the human model. In this way the tension and direction of attention is visualized.
