Exhausted…

Yes, yesterday I was a complete wreck. All I was able to think was “I’m not really this frustrated, angry and anxious – I’m just shit tired!”

I was at my studio trying to figure out how to attach five light boxes together to be hung from the ceiling. But as it’s clear inventevness walks hand in hand with clear mind.

I haven’t been impressed by any art works in a long time. But couple of days ago I came across Mariele Neudeckers work that were pretty impressive. http://www.bthumm.de/www/artists/neudecker/exhibitions.php

It’s good there’s artists whose works aren’t just post-monernistically sarcastic.

Paint progress…

Still working with the old ones…

Installation photography and stuff…

I was taking some photograph in the forest today. And then I also gathered some organic materials for my next installation.

Here’s some photos.

“The Grid” (red paint, forest)

Painting, “Shelter”

It’s complete. This picture is from really close to the final result. Just small tonal changes in the midgrounds.

“Stalker” installation demo…

Featuring miniature boat floating in a flooded room. Small wireless camera is filming through a hole in the hull of the ship towards the bottom of the murky waters. There’s light revealing several fragments in the waters that the boat is supposed to “find”.

Here’s some stills of it.

Apologies…

For not having updated for a long while. I just have forgotten whole thing. There was a trip to India which took couple of weeks out of my schedule and loads of other work.

I haven’t forgot to document stuff though. So now I’ll update all that stuff from last couple of months.
