emulation | 2009
.
oil/canvas: 85 x 85 cm
While trying to outsmart our natural environment we generate a tremendous failure record and leave a heavy legacy of debt to the generations to come. Considering the past, both distant and recent, it is ridiculous to believe that nature can be conquered or tamed. Nevertheless, we don't give up. Short-term solutions are constantly being applied to quench our civilisation’s thirst to subdue and to possess. We keep forgetting that this is a predictable race, as nature is always a step ahead. Funny stuff.

spirals vs. circles | 2004 - 2008
.
the limit of modernity | oil/canvas: 128 x 92 cm
Just like many others, I happen to associate modernity with the western world of the past four centuries and more importantly with its inherent pursuit of rational progress by all means. Scientific advancement, however, has only accelerated our circular stay on this planet, disregarding the values of all non-western cultures and ignoring the finite nature of all earthly resources. There is no such thing as progress in the round world. Spirals and circles are simply incompatible, as they do not belong to the same metaphysical dimension. The deliberate progression which determines The Limit of Modernity takes less time to decipher. It is obvious that figures progressively change their shape, size and colour, e.g. the white triangle leads to a darker square which is followed by a smaller pentagon. Unlike the rest, the black circle is fully circumscribed by a polygon. The b/w lines which accordingly refer to every other body are not applicable now. Progression seems to exclude circles from its domain.

horizontal composition of five vertical elements | oil/canvas: 51 x 51 cm
you wonder why
horizons are unreachable.
but you forget
that distance doesn't fit you well.
it's only a feeling.
let it fly away
and be constructive,
and carry your smile all the way..

a study on the fellowship | 2004 - 2008
.
fellowship / an example of human nature | oil/canvas: 90 x 120 cm
this combination between the british and the american flag dates the coalition of the willing of the early 21st century. although the composition can be easily recognised as one bearing contemporary political connotation, it may also be viewed as the symbol of collaboration between two extremely different ideologies. this kind of unity seems impossible and rather provocative at first sight. people free of prejudice, however, know that fellowships of the above sort are agreed each day between those ready to compromise their only life for the sake of evanescence.
