SCIENTIFIC SURREALISM “I feel motivated by the impact of social transformations caused by technology. The transition from a childhood in nature to adulthood in the western society forced me to exchange my concept of reality and allowed me to understand the differences between developed and growing civilisations. I found in scientific surrealism a critical way of expressing my sensitivity to the coincidence of different cultures and the way their history reacts to the advances in technology.�
