City.  120 x 110 x 25 cm, 2014
This series of multilayered light boxes was developed through the last year of my undergraduate studies. I explored the post-apocalyptic idea for the first time. Not yet fully defined narrative allowed me to experiment with assembling various human animal hybrids, and to form a vast collection of paper clippings. The collection of the paper silhouettes, later progressed to categorised archive and is a continuous source of images to many of my works. I intuitively created the framed scenarios in each lightbox using natural motifs and animal imagery to invite the viewer to explore the details and elements and to form endless individual stories.
​Romantic Romance 
​

A series of objects, drawings and paintings, that seek to investigate the popular Romantic Novel. These are a few testings with the book covers' images, the false truth' the stereotypes and the weaving of twisted fantasies for the avid readers. 2011-2013.

Digital reality
​

A series of photographs where digital icons such as an arrow or an hourglass are embedded in the photo and symbolize the virtual space of the Neo-sphere.  
Against the virtual environment (and concepts of manipulation, deception and exchangeability), the physical environment appears in the photos as a reality shot depicting objects from cardboard, strings and glue shaped as the digital icons. In fact, the photographs mimic digital “reality” in the concrete environment. 2010
