FLOOD_ Symposium 2

English  At first, I wanted this video to be more poetic. A piece of art by itself. Almost a video statement that could account for presenting me as an artist. When I started putting my thoughts in order and in text format I felt a bit lost- how to summarize everything I'm thinking and building…

Full Body Blind Self Portrait

English: I still feel very uncertain about the value of these drawings as art, or whether they are just part of a process or a personal ritual. Yet I decided to resume my practice and try to take a step beyond what I had done before. Since I started this process of self-portraits my focus…

Character Building w. Madeline Dae

English:  Earlier this year I helped Maddie explore her research on character building, selfie and face transformation from makeup, which is an illusion of light and shadow through makeup to hide flaws or highlight positive features (a practice started by Drag Queen community to look more feminine).  We went to Camberwell's professional photographic studio and…

Queen of Wands

English: Queen of Wands 17.10- 9.12.2016 On the 17th October 2016 I felt safe to draw another card from the Tarot deck that symbolized my career and my artistic yearnings.

Continuing the technique of the blind drawing I introduced the yellow color and marked in the drawing…

Group Crit #1

English: Your work is to make your work In this Tuesday, at the regular time of our traditional meeting we did a different dynamic- we had the first opportunity to present our case and our embryonic ideas to colleagues, with an exchange of experiences and references. I think I'm in the process of getting comfortable…

Blind self-portrait #3

  English: Drawings between days 03.10-16.10.2016 Here is another batch of blind self-portraits. I have to admit that these drawings have left me a little frustrated. The drawings were done in the average time of 1 minute and 30 seconds, in which I empty my mind- I feel that I am not able to concentrate…
