My work reflects the pluralism of stylistic and ideological influences from the rich history of avant-garde artistic movements, with a special emphasis on Dadaism, Fluxus, conceptualism and punk aesthetics. Through the integration of the written word into different visual media such as paintings, graphics, 'street art' (specifically writing slogans in public spaces) and self-published books (that interrogate my artistic approaches), I create complex narratives that explore a wide range of topics, from the appropriation of poetry, philosophy to punk music lyrics. This interdisciplinary approach reflects the tendency towards the deconstruction of boundaries between different artistic disciplines and emphasizes the importance of words as a basic motive and means of expression. In doing so, the tone I often use is characterized by what I would term as a revolutionary, engaged attitude, suggesting a continuous struggle against conventional social norms and political systems. Consequently, the synthesis of avant-garde aesthetics and subversive ideas creates a dynamic artistic discourse that provokes reflection and encourages the viewer to actively participate in the interpretation and reinterpretation of the artwork. In addition to gallery and museum spaces, therefore, my work is also embedded within the urban fabric of the city, notably where I present my work in the form of written graffiti, posters, and banners, which I then later document through photography. The urban fabric enables me to spread my works widely in contrast to traditional artistic structures. In terms of my own practice, I use the city, the neighbourhood and the street as places of imagination and protest, decay and belonging. The practice entails the use of political phrases taken/appropriated from 'the street,' as well as from poetry, philosophical statements and/or punk songs, and then taken out of context to resemble television and other media-type slogans. Statements are often one line long and contain the rhetoric of a communicative impulse typical of a manifesto: where a point of view, values or criticisms are clearly expressed. This can be seen as an artistic response to social, political, or philosophical challenges, and a manifesto can serve as a declaration of the artist's intentions. Here, my work becomes a means of searching for altered and/or disturbing communication: an approach which one could term as 'guerilla marketing.' In other words, the texts I apply to canvases, walls, posters and more, give new life to sentences as a means of highlighting social injustices, and challenging already prevailing prejudices and beliefs.
