Pulsation
Video projection on aluminium support, stereo, loop, 9', 2007

Pulsation is based on an x-ray scan of the artist’s brain, cerebral tissue presenting a unique point of contact and the indivisible link of the organic body with mental energy levels. Pulsation presents a pulsating light phenomenon, a bodily / organic and technologically generated hybrid, in the form of a video projection of a radiological scan of the artist’s brain and video-recorded, computer-modified images.
Mirroring relations and replications and constituting a challenge for expanded perceptional experience, the work allows the viewer to construct an ever-changing, imaginary, individual mental landscape by providing an open space for his/her interpretations, inter-connections, creations of new connotations, and expanded (self)reflection.
"I know precisely enough what kind of structure I want and get by using a particular procedure. A degree of deviation is possible, so coincidence does play a certain role, but only within the process, since I do not change the conceptual content of the work. As far as content is concerned, there are no deviations, I do not intervene in the process of forming shapes by any gesture. Though it may seem paradoxical, coincidence is thus controlled, and whatever appears is correct, to use this awkward word. A procedural way of creating a work of art is used here, because my work is closely tied to the idea of nature. In my procedures I make use of gravitation, decantation and solidification of material, organic forms, horizontal dimensions and laws of coincidence and entropy, which are all essential in nature.
I am inspired mostly by elementary physical and chemical processes of natural phenomena and elementary states of light and matter.
Space is of prime importance on many levels. I am interested in inter-space, a space of relations, a relative, virtual, imaginative and subjective space. What is important are the setting and the position of works of art in a concrete space, as well as the imaginary relations established among them by the viewer. I am also interested in the space of the object of light“.
