VISUAL EDITOR EXHIBITION : INTERRUPTION

2012-02-12T02:57:00.001-08:00

'Imprisoned' is my final outcome from the Visual Editor elective at the RCA.
The book is based on two objects from the Wellcome Collection:
a fakir's sandal and a portrait of Daniel Lambert.
The main character lives in a jail/house. His daily activities are disturbed by the nightmarish shadow.

This is a short film presenting the automaton which I made along the Dante's Inferno map (see on my blog somewhere below ). I like very much the natural noise made by the mechanism.

I have been continuously working on the Inferno by Dante Alighieri. The nine circles of the Hell present suffering and punished sinners.
Drawings are mostly created from my imagination. They will be put together to create a map of hell.
I quite enjoy the hellish theme :)

I really enjoy the style of Esra's work.
Her poems and my illustrations ideally complete each other.

THE TRIAL- work in progress/5

2010-11-26T16:03:00.001-08:00

The 'Head-city' inspired by Franz Kafka 'Trial' is almost finished.

The idea has started from the small maquette of the city and has grown into the combination of external and internal objects. The front head symbolises the mind trapped into itself, its thoughts and the city. The labyrinth and installation convey a variety of existential aspects for example absurd and helplessness of life. The photographs of the buildings, windows, doors, stairs create the surreal and unsettling atmosphere. I hope that claustrophobic atmosphere of Kafka's book can bee seen in this work.

The 'Head city' is open for interpretation. Please have a peek!

The Secret Manifesto

2010-08-06T12:44:00.001-07:00

The Secret Manifesto is manifested by a hollow, wooden cube sheltering the Dantean Heaven, Limbo and Inferno. The content can be seen through a number of cube’s orifices and thanks to the light bulb illuminating its content. The orifices give different perspectives and allow the viewer their own unique interpretation. The cube contains family photos, places, beasts and buildings. Serious or grotesque, banal or extravagant, inspired by my personal memories and fuelled by my imagination.
