Breaked, with teeth: twenty years of art

My work had a “more than that” approach – perhaps even too much, but it was always right for me.

In 2014, your practice changed, stay away from using combined wallpapers, using mostly cut pages full of words. If we look back, any reason to move away from this part of your practice?

For more than ten years, I worked with mixed media backgrounds, creating stickers of old dictionaries, maps, biology and science. These were my low years, severely inspired by American artists, villain, Gothic, and Victorian. My work had a “more than that” approach – perhaps even too much, but it was always right for me. I continued in this spirit until 2014.

I was tired of doing cosmetics, it was too much and it was the time to change my background technology. The next stage of my art started when I moved away from combined wallpapers. I felt the need to flee the material world and began to draw the universe. This transformation represents my full embrace of the Surrealism movement- a transition to light.

Are words still playing a role in your work now, after twenty years?

Words still play a role in my work but in a completely different way. I am deeply inspired by the lyrics of songs, for example in the song “Al -Rahib Loew” from the National, these songs: “It is a terrible love and I walk with spiders.” The “terrible trap” painting inspired me with a butterfly woman besieged in the spider network. I am also recently inspired by post -evil teams such as Fontaine DC, Idles, Murder Capital and Post Hardcore Band from La Touché Amoré. I can also be inspired by the story of the stories as great, as I listen to a lot of voice books when I work. For example, those who reach Tolkin, their horror for Stephen King, and the magic cars of Nile Jiman, are the first three places.

I have read that you have found a great deal of inspiration after visiting Japan, and that the experience changed you. Was Kaway characters? Is it a culture as a whole? Can you clarify the experience of changing life for us?

Japan definitely changed my life. I have been great by anime since my childhood as the leader of Harlock, Bahar Moon, movies like Ghadzella and many others. This was my first approach to Japanese culture. I had the opportunity to travel to Japan and I was completely blown due to beauty, perfection, discipline and culture. Nature and (shrine) (shrine) is very strong, gardens have a dreamy shape, and everything is more beautiful in Japan. There is something spiritual and magic that I did not find in another country. Shabitan may affect me with spirituality. Everything is alive. I also love discipline in art and Japan, and the level is very high, as it gave me enough energy to challenge myself every day. This helps me understand that I will advance all my life. I will give everything “to escalate” my art every day. I work a lot every day between 7 hours to 10 hours, as the Japanese artist does.

I also love the culture of Kawi in art, on the street, in the manga; It is a beautiful meeting and never ends. I have seen that Sebastian Masouda, an artist and creator of the Monster Café, but also the 6 % brand. Japan is my favorite country, I will return to Tokyo soon, I can’t wait

Your work has darkness, not only because of the black ink for you. This may be the dense amount of details or interlocking forest backgrounds, tree ends and characters. Everything looks like. However, there is a positive for it, at least in the way this world is depicted. Should we doubt the eyes open wide and smiles of your characters? Should we trust them?

There is a dark and light part in the technician but there is always a good balance.
