1992-2024 Ćuti i budi srećna

A piece from Komorebi 木漏れ日collection.

Inspired by the Japanese concept of "Komorebi," which refers to the graceful play of sunlight filtering through the trees, this exhibition explores the profound symbolism and fleeting nature of life's beauty. Artworks include a distinctive fusion of analog collages and light digital interventions. Each artwork is meticulously created before being photographed or scanned. The original physical versions of the artworks are purposefully destroyed in order to reflect the ephemeral and elusive nature of existence itself. My goal in creating this artwork is to represent the transience of beauty and the fleeting nature of life's moments. The pieces explore the struggles, triumphs, resiliency, and beauty of life Intuitive urges and the artists' psychological state at the time of the artistic endeavor have determined the form and theme of the pieces. By exploring the small details of existence, such as the brief moments of beauty that last mere seconds and then disappear into eternity, I invite viewers to reflect on the profound narratives embedded within our everyday experiences we all share. The pieces offer contemplation and introspection, amidst the weight carried by the narratives portrayed. By engaging with these artworks, viewers will be invited to embrace the promise of tranquility and contentment, finding solace in the transient nature of life.

Not my kind of game

Moram da idem Lj. Daleko

From the Bereshit collection, this piece symbolizes the embodiment of divine light, that is, the separation of day and night. From blackness and nothingness, G-d creates light and announces the future formation of life. Light and darkness are unity and the basic postulate on which life is based.

God separated between the light and between the darkness

This piece is from the Bereshit collection and tells a story of how G-d has already started with the creation of forms, and certain elements start to appear. Symbolically, this is how I tried to depict earth and water in the darkness. At this point, light is yet to be created by G-d.

The Pentateuch of the Holy Torah begins with Bereshit (בְּרֵאשִׁית), which means "in the beginning" in Hebrew. It consists of Genesis 1:1-6:8\. Given that I have always drawn inspiration from scriptures, philosophy, and of theosophy, I remained loyal to the same love in an attempt to depict my experience of the same. The collection features abstract sculptures that explore creation, drawing from the Genesis story. Through symbolic forms, the artist captures the interplay of light and darkness, representing the birth of elements and life's cyclical journey.

Now the earth was astonishingly empty, and darkness was on the face of the deep, and the spirit of God was hovering over the face of the water.

The art piece is part of the "Savina" collection and uses collages featuring the artist's hair to symbolize self-expression and identity. Each strand of hair becomes a representation of her inner self, capturing moments and stories. The connection between the Japanese terms "kami" (hair) and "kami" (spirit) adds depth, as the hair mirrors one's essence. The collages depict the artist's journey from conforming to societal expectations to embracing her true self. The message is to celebrate authenticity and recognize the strength in being true despite challenges

Composition no.4 Drawing

Threads gracefully converge on canvas, creating fleeting patterns in 'Living Art'. Unlike static pieces, it evolves, reflecting life's changes. Guided by chance, threads echo life's spontaneity and embrace accidents, mirroring the twists of reality.
