My paintings relate to that aspect of social perception of visual information, which we receive via the media. This is the overlap of information/events with new information/events in the sense, that duration or public attention to one event is exactly measured and known by the media, who know when to get on the day with a new event that replaces old and takes its actuality. So it is created a lack of interest in personal and social tragedies that are happening around the world. Chronic conditions of tragedies, famine, disaster and war in recurrent areas, however create a sense of repetition of information, that loses function of the news (and novelty) and remains a pale shadow of the event.
The event at the same moment, when it loses its actuality, also loses reality in terms of, if it is no longer present in the media, it has stopped happening. Too many information, that nullify each other, are creating fragmentation of events and images.
