STATEMENT
“I released all my balloons into the bottomless universe of grotesqueness and flew after them”
For me, my art is a pleasant immersion into a utopian world of innocence and carefreeness, which is so easily lost in everyday life. I create a world where playful carefree characters entwine you in the dance of enchantment of innocence and tenderness, allowing you to recall joy as in childhood.
My art is like a ticket to the absurd circus of innocence, where jugglers futilely attempt to juggle the torches of reason, and acrobats fail in their abilities of logical reasoning. My characters and stories embody children's dreams and hopes, while our world looks down on them, laughs, and says, 'What nonsense!'
I strive to make my art not only graceful, but also absurd, to emphasize our endless capacity for mistakes and misunderstandings.
My motto is: Friends, allow yourselves to return to childhood, to a world of simplicity, independent of common sense!"
