it deconstructs perceptual images in order to assemble them in a collective imagery, urging the viewers to a process of self-reflection. Artists are always interested in probing to see what is beneath the surface: maybe one of the roles of an artist could be to reveal unexpected sides of Nature, especially of our inner Nature... what's your view about this?
The quest of inner ‘abyss’. Our soul. Our psych organ. It’s the organ that speaks out our truths. But at the end what it remains is the big empty. The emptiness is an outcome of the subtraction of all these things that can be deleted from a space. It’s the minimum not the empty. The void is not necessarily an absence. At least the way I see it, deal with it. It’s like another kind of presence. A material, which responds. It is positive, full like existence itself. Otherwise, void and full are two elements, which mix like oil and water. For example, The undersea world gives the impression of void due to lack of gravity. However, in reality, undersea world is a full space. It is full of life, energy and activities. It is also a space that we can ‘touch’ and ‘feel’ the void. I could say that an empty space exists till we dive into it. When that happens, its abstract meaning ends. It becomes a space full of experiences. All it needs is a good mood, love, sounds, colors, lines and levels to let the words be born.
