“Within an
environment envisioned by the artist upon seeing the gallery allotted to him,
he arranges work stemming from his early youth to the very present, in a manner
of a child being handed toys, new and old: some are cherished and idolized,
some are semi-precious in rank, some are abandoned and neglected in slumber of
increasing hate generating towards them. Some are loved to the utmost, so much
he’d want to hold onto them until the very last moment before death, and beyond.
“The work being treated as such will be comprised
of fragments of former larger scale environments, drawings, paintings, objects
found and fabricated. In ‘and then leave me to the common swifts’, nothing is
an attempt of recreating the original composition of when these works were
displayed each for its first time. Instead the artist gives in to whatever his
innate forces originating in his emotions command him to do upon the encounter
with this work, his very own, for the most part. The result is further also
constrained by time or its lack, and the pressure created by complex
sociological processes, which sometimes leads the artist to surrender to a
fatalism otherwise strongly fought.”
