Air Sculptures

There is an ancient Slavic tradition of creating sacred geometric structures from rye and wheat stalks, known as "Spiders" ("Pavuki"). Traditionally, these were made for Christmas and burned after a year. The "Spiders" were not only meant to decorate the home but also to cleanse it of negative energy, absorbing anything unnecessary into their web.

I explore this tradition, work with it, and reinterpret it. I am interested in the relationship and interaction between humans and geometry. In my practice, I use traditional materials but do not limit myself to traditional forms. Through geometric shapes, I create Space. A multidimensional space into which I wish to immerse the viewer. This is a space of transformation. I hang the sculptures from the ceiling in a traditional manner because I want to emphasize their mobility.

My sculptures can be viewed as symbolic maps to hidden worlds. They may help reveal one's spiritual potential and offer a new perspective on the world.
