My work is about breathing. Inhale, exhale, and all the space and time between. Contemplation and peacefulness, drifting apart and separating, longing and conciliation, reuniting into quiet tranquility again.
I try to capture emotions and the essence of thoughts into the almost de-materialized matter, constantly searching for immensity and silence in vastness of actual landscapes, mirroring those inside my awareness.

European Glass Context 2021, Bornholm, Denmark, 11 September –21 November 2021
Installation Breath in Between, is part of the quadrennial exhibition European Glass Context 2021 on Bornholm, Denmark.
Breaths pass on the silence of space and time in the isolated intimate world, lingering within its own membrane of dreams and desires, in the midst of closeness of other worlds. They are a moment between this breath and the next, eternally stretched out in their stillness.
