"I am fascinated by the notion of histories and motifs as materialised objects. Such objects move through time and space, alongside generations of human life, being present as silent witnesses to culture. Ready for shifting into a new contemporary form. Within their agency they carry memory with them. Memory that, given the right circumstances and conditions, just like the karst river, pop up as they travel along the ages, reaching the surface when conditions align and allow the stream to re-appear to tell their story. The grounds on which those narratives reappear assume a wide variety of forms and matter - from the digital and physical space, written and spoken language, images or even sensations. It seems that one tends to consider them as universally given in our modern day lives and mainstream collective memory, even though they have a history.

My personal motivation comes from an existential need to understand the mechanisms of symbols, images and motifs and how one experiences them, both ontologically as well as in their insurmountable material existence to which one inevitably must relate. As an artistic researcher, I play with the evocation of mnemonic traces, pushing them into different contexts, media, and alternating realities in which the re-arranging and new readability of the context can render new understandings of the objects visible."
