Biography
My work starts from the thinking that self-evaluated aspect of humans being 'especially' superior, beautiful or uglier than other living organisms can be extremely ordinary and trivial from the perspectives of Mother Nature.
My work is deeply rooted in the notion that all these can be merged into 'spontaneousness' and fixed ethical standards or 'political correctness' can be denied or overthrown at any time. So, to the audience who see my work, causing confusion or displeasure is my hidden intent.
