In this work, I search for the limits of stone - the edge of the ability to exploit the surface without transgressing the border and bringing about fractures and cracks. Always in search of contrasts. Between the constructive and the decorative. Between naivety and culture. Between masculine and feminine. The process was slow and cautious, simultaneously progressing in all the drillings, one centimeter following the other, in order not to cause too much pressure in one area that might break the inner balance of the stone and its durability.

My work deals with longing for the sewing box, for lost and sometimes unidentified objects that hide in the feminine "treasures" box. A buckle, a watchstrap, a half-key, and a piece of selvedge are the components of this work. In this work, I give a place of honor to useless objects that have been casually stored over the years, placing them in the center of the work. The main task is to develop a soft, rounded and pleasant feeling like of cloth from a hard and stabbing material, prone to fractures, like marble.

“Keys”

2019-04-17T13:13:27+03:00

"Keychain" talks about leadership, responsibility, maintaining and controlling. Holders of the keys are the controlling shareholders. However, the keys in the statue are the keys to personal diaries, to pieces of memory, to history. Every piece of information needs the right key to reach it. While the controlling shareholders express the dominant narrative, formulated by the mainstreams of the nation, by means of diaries, other voices can also be reached, which would expose weakened populations that also have their own narrative, but their voice is not always heard.

Unfinished Work

2019-05-08T08:57:07+03:00

"Unfinished Work" is a piece of embroidery in the middle of doing it, with remainders of unordered, unstitched threads. A work abandoned in the middle. The work represents the lifetime of objects in our contemporary consumer culture. It sets in a stone statue, the lifetime of which is much longer than theirs is. It thus represents the urge to conserve and the need to preserve memory.

Another paradox

2019-04-17T13:21:55+03:00

For the past 15 years I have been working with marble stone, in close contact with stone, on a daily basis, and here is what I discovered: When you sculpt in stone, your fingertips become wrinkled like those of a laundress. A natural phenomenon that creates a similarity between stone and water. Distant substances affect the body in a similar way. Who would believe...

There are so many paradoxes related to what I do

2019-04-17T13:20:59+03:00

There are so many paradoxes related to what I do. Here is one paradox: How can it be that all that fills my working hours is a rhythmic tapping on stone, clouds of dust, a painful blow with the hammer on my finger, pieces of waste flying right into my eyes, matter, matter ,and matter ...
