MY ART STATEMENT

I believe that an artist is a public person, who has to act responsibly.
By creating art an artist has to make influence people's consciousness. Artists should attempt to return universal values to their hearts.
These are my role and philosophy. In every object, I create, I am embodying my soul, my feelings, and my ideas, and my object becomes life energy, which I believe should have a positive influence on people's souls and minds.
Every object can be turned into a masterpiece in a master's hands and contribute to human civilization,
if the art contains universal values.

But sometimes I create also drawings and digital art.
Bronze sculptures I began to create in 1987 and I do manually all works including patina, except the bronze casting.
From the very beginning of my exhibitions, I got very favorable responses from the public, who relished my work and encouraged me to go on to other media.
My works of art do not rely on style, styles are for me just a means to make my art life, and because of it,
I am practicing many styles in my art.
I am creating realistic art, surrealistic art, figurative abstracted art, and abstracted art and I have created a huge 50 sq.m
symbolic performance named " Chess against the War".
My main motive is humanity. My main concern in doing my sculptures is to convey my feelings to the public, to express warmth,
sensuality, sensitivity, a joy of life, love, togetherness, tenderness, strength, and motion.
In creating my art usually most common forms and objects, I am transforming into unusual objects and forms with
different symbolic meanings from the original object.
Looking at my artworks you can see abstract, realistic, surrealistic, and symbolic art.
