Habitat 2019
The „Habitat“ ambient installation was realized in 2019. in the space of the old Brickyard in Belgrade, as a Master project. It contained over a hundred sculptures and several research series of drawings and paintings.
The world we live in makes me think about itself as a great, self-sufficient and somewhat incomprehensible concept. We know it as it is, and we are forced to accept it as it is. This was the reason i was in need to create my own immanent world, formed by the symbols of logic and all other occurrences and entities that make it seem that way.
This certainly reflects on my understanding of art, and also it is related to my own metod for making the visual appearance of my art. These symbols in my work are extremely repetitive, and this reptesents the reflection of the contemporary society that became the cause and the victim of many information it get to know, eventualy on daily bases. It is also imprtant that each individual form has its own autonomy in the addition to this kind od repetitive modus od the drawing. Therefore, I create my own habitat of similar forms that reach the emptiness to themselves with their unity and density, both at the same time drawing attention to themselves and also creating a monolith object – same way as it happens in a society. Individuality may be lost in the group, but this isn’t necessarily a negative phenomenon. By this I point to the contemporary world which we live in and which led us to this stage of social relations. The apathy of the broad masses has a similarly negative impact on society, as the social engagement about one idea would have had a positive effect. Therefore I call to the understanding that an individual in a group has greater strength and power, and that his identitety in it might not be completely lost, but it could be recognized, and saved by its worth.
