historical point of view, his current work belongs to the significant international avant-garde stream of neosurrealism where the dominant technique is decal. In pictures, he connects the living with the non-living, the animal with the human, the rational with the irrational, the beautiful with the ugly. His works thus reflect our time and space which we live in. Images come from subconsciousness, colours are shining, combined somewhere and somewhere the result is monochrome.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]\n
