The relationship between humans and space in the modern age is the main theme of my work. I am fascinated by the ideology of urban development and how it alters space. Transformation of the land, through the shifting demands of the global economy, creates a void of context and opens up room for new interpretations. My artistic approach involves research into the historic, political and economic based activities and a physical exploration of these spaces on the edge of the normal experience. In order to search for the statement of our trace, I capture elements of the realities, which are later reconstructed. In this process I renew my perception of the space as metaphors for our modern identity.
