Ovo je patka (oglas), 2023. – u procesu / This is the Duck (Ad), 2023 – ongoing
papir, fotokopija / paper, photocopy
21 x 29,7 cm
Kopiju crteža “Ovo je Patka” autor aplicira na zid pothodnika u Beogradu. Kopija crteža ubrzo nestaje te autor na isto mjesto aplicira oglas o nestaloj kopiji crteža. Nakon što i oglas nestane, autor aplicira oglas o nestalom oglasu, o nestaloj kopiji crteža. Svakim nestankom oglasa, autor stvara novi koji se referira na prethodne oglase. Moja umjetnička praksa temelji se na procesu nastajanja radova kroz vrijeme. To su najčešće situacije iz svakodnevice koje interpretiram koristeći različite medije.
A copy of the drawing This is the Duck is applied to a wall in a Belgrade underpass. The copy of the drawing soon disappears, and the artist applies a notice about the missing copy of the drawing to the same location. After the notice also disappears, the artist applies a notice about the missing notice about the missing copy of the drawing. With each disappearance of the notice, the artist creates a new one that refers to the previous ones. My artistic practice is rooted in an ongoing process of creation. These are most often everyday situations that I interpret using various media.
