ongoing project
The work titled The Waste Land delves into the landscape of the Serbian part of geographical territory of Banat, situated in the north of the country. The focus of this work is primarily on landscapes and objects from rural areas that lose population and economic sustainability each year. For me, these places contain a symbolic charge characteristic of a field where history, myth, and local tales intertwine. It can be said that I operate at the crossroads of magical realism and topography, as I map points within the same space where parallel planes of different realities— historical, cultural, folkloric, familial, and personal— intersect.
The Waste Land is conceived as a whole composed of interconnected fragments— collages, drawings, and photographic records.
