Decision-making Power, Collage and pen marker on paper, 20,7x27,3cm, 2016

​

1. Drawing Utopias: My collage art in itself is an utopian expression which binds fragments of broken realities into illusions that are more touchable.

2. Dream Economics: I dream of an art world in which gallery owners invest in artists without cheating them. Also where every sector is connected so that we can achieve transparency and inclusion instead of ambiguousness and impenetrability. In this way artists will have better chances of maintaining their integrity and profession.
