Music and Flowers

When I was a child, any kind of advertisement was forbidden both on the streets and television. Well therefore the programs you could see on your TV were boring to death, and all that I remember from those times when ever one was dare enough to turn the "magic box" on, is the "Kid's program", the "News", and between them the "Flowers" and the "Musics". On those days any kind of music was also forbidden, BUT the "magic box" was permitted to show the flowers with classical and light musics if there were no vocals on them. At first the flowers were just the still pictures you could find on the very cheep postal-cards, then they changed a bit, I mean these ugly frames of beautiful flowers turned to be real, and they did not use still frames any more. Yet when I think of those frames I still can not believe that how ugly were all of them, and among all those musics I really loved the "Four Seasons" by "Antonio Vivaldi". But I doubt if you could imagine yourself having to listen to an adorable music all the days of a week and two or three times daily for about 10 years...

Self Portrait

Video art, it's the portrait of myself melting in the black background color, while there are some hand writings on the screen, expressing my thoughts while doing the works.
I have done paintings on same theme, Self portrait series.

The Four Elements

The title of my recent work is “The Four Elements”.
There are four videos projecting at the same time, on the four walls of one place (Gallery). And of course each one of them has its own title: Earth, Wind, Water and Fire. Each of the videos can be exhibited separately. (As I have done this for the video work “Fire”).
But when ever the four videos are shown together and at the same time the title will be “The Four Elements”.
