THE FLOW

Koprivnica Gallery, Museum of Međimurje, Čakovec

Life is compared to a river. Three TVs presented – spring, flow and the estuary of life.

In the last video my grandmother was talking about her life by the river Drava, which was the border between Croatia and Hungary in the II World War. The video is a documentary (of her story and events) and personal at the same time. As she was telling me stories about her life I realised that she would go away soon.

CALLIGRAPHY

WATER VIEW VIDEO

Koprivnica Gallery exhibition

Water is a symbol that is in constant motion, change, depth of unconscious, inner turmoil, cleanliness, power to nourish but also to destroy any obstacle in its way.  

It is also an important element that makes up our physical being. 

In this video sea water reflects the light of the full Moon.

Its final product is a series of moving abstract pictures accompanied by sound produced by Nikola Šafarić 2002

BLIND DATE EXHIBITION

Miroslav Kraljevic Gallery

With  Anne-Marie Copestake (Scotland, Glasgow)

International project - collaboration of Scottish and Croatian artist from different socio-political and cultural environments. Two artist who didn't know each other met. In a month they worked together to create an exhibition.

''Lights were filtered red, the black TV box was padded with shaggy reddish fabric. The red armchair was borrowed to improve the condition of perception, in addition it was strengthened by the poignant aroma of Indian incense.''

''The structure was meant for a hedonistic audience….''

'' In spite of this the obvious de-erotization of the floral motive was surprising. Close shots of flowers in full bloom, stamen, petals, pistils and soft tissues, the images of real flowers combined with artificial and contrasted with dry roses discreetly placed in the tall yellow vase behind the TV set, alluded to ephemeral like so many XVII century still lives where abundance was a messenger of doom.''
