The distance is always the subject in my works and now the emphasis is on a peculiar self-awareness within this feature.
The project performs a reflexivity bouncing back and forth from the space to the explorer and this implies two circular relationships - first between the image and the artist, the second between the work of art and the viewer. In this short movie I am showing a new painting I am working at in my studio in relation with the actual place that inspire the work, situated somewhere peripheral to the town I live in - a former amusement park that transformed in this type of wild scenery after just couple years of abandonment. The work is a remake of another painting I did in 2011 - "To Heal a Wounded Surfer" - a painting based on the negative image cut from the right panel of Hieronymus Bosch's "The Garden of Earthly Delights"
- a drawing representing The Vacanti Mouse, a laboratory mouse that had what looked like a human ear grown on its back; the “ear” was actually an ear-shaped cartilage structure grown by seeding cow cartilage cells into a biodegradable ear-shaped mold; the earmouse, as it became known as, was created by Dr. Charles Vacanti, at the University of Massachusetts in 1995 NEW PRINTED PUBLICATION by Mind Set Art Center Taipei
