I work with toys mostly, Barbie in particular. 

 

Barbie is an interesting object to explore, because these dolls are created in the image and likeness of a human being. They are static, always smiling and happy with everything happening to them, no matter what is really going on during the photo session. And it looks strange and unnatural, so it makes you think about the limits of what is really acceptable. 

 

My work is based on images that emerge from the depths of the subconscious. Therefore, I am completely okay with free interpretation of my paintings along with my own vision. 

 

I am interested in the topic of violence against the human will, probably because I grew up in a religious family. Sometimes, you can feel the tension that is about to explode between the characters, and my job is to ensure I show them a minute before the total loss of self-control… Although, you know that Barbies smile in spite of everything and anything.
