Any series – are, in one way or another, the reflection of the author’s personal experience. For the past couple of months I very rarely left the house, when I did it was only at night when I went to work or in case of an urgent matter. I did not answer the phone and rarely checked my e-mails. Most of the time was spent attempting to answer the questions which had accumulated over the past years.

Everything surrounding us today is progressively becoming faster; gaining momentum with each day the superfluous amount of information is becoming more unbearable to withhold; it forces a man to retreat inside, to close off, to seek confinement within himself as a kind of temporary relief — a Psychological Isolation, if you may.

In creating these series I first and foremost aspired to capture and to convey the moment of internal displacement, its separation in two spheres — the objective and the subjective. Submerged in isolation, be it only a temporary or even a deliberate one, the human mind begins to operate in a seesaw-like motion; the consciousness shifts from objective reality to internal images: associations and memories. As if rummaging through an old archive, the mind drifts from the present moment to projections of the found memories and the feelings associated with them and then back again and so forth.
