No place for paper toys
2013.
After thousands of years of war for sameness, petrification of human consciousness has overcome the biological limits of humans in the creation of world of objects. They have finally become objects themselves, sculptures with petrified consciousness. In the extremely violent surrounding of sameness, almost all forms of life have been extinguished or marginalized.
This is the story of a paper toy who dared to stand up against the sameness and intended to occupy it’s space in their world of object.
Screenings:
Annual exhibition of HDLU members, 2013.
Baranja Animation Festival (BAF!), Croatia
Animateka, Ljubljana, Slovenia

BORROWORROB: In Search of Symmetry.

Borroworrob: In many ways every artistic work is posed in relation to another force. This activity is already spatial. A question borrows space from the space that it questions, but this also robs the space it questions of its own space, sometimes a lot, sometimes just a little – doubling it, turning it inside out – returning symmetry to asymmetry. For this exhibition, Macapia brings together various questions concerning space, including economics, engaged urban research, and history.

M.l.i.b.t.Y. sk8atbroads? – “THRESHOLD”
Just an experimental skate video I did from the rests of some skate footage and other trashy stuff, mixed with images of my MLIBTY Shadows sculpture series. The idea was to mix sculptures and skateboarding in one video, following the black&white aestetic of these sculptures and to wrap it all with a strong 2D graphic style, using the threshold effect.
MLIBTY Shadows are taking over the main role in the video, ignoring the individuality of the skaters as well as info in the credits of the video.
