Richter’s Game: a comic book I’ve made for Contemporary Art Museum in Zagreb, Croatia. It’s an interpretation of works and thoughts of a famous Croatian architect, sculptor and a playful visionary soul, Vjenceslav Richter. How to translate abstract modernist art work into action comic? Well, I did it...

This comic book is printed in croatian language, but english version is coming soon...

Here’s a video I made about the printing process and experimentation at the Oficina ARARA studio in Porto, Portugal.

The Feedbackground Entities is a series of prints created through a 3 long days of printing in which only three images (screens) were being used in different combinations of layers, colors, gradients, positions and papers, to create some 300 prints of which only 2 are alike.

Under the title Feedbackgrounds, I have been exploring the possibilities of depicting sounds, movements and vibrations in two-dimensional drawings.

THIS IS NOT A COPY OF A CHURCH

This is a copy of the church St Nikola in Cres. It's made entirely out of cardboard by the artist Boris Hoppek while the interior drawings are made by Dunja Jankovic. The main reason for making this church is to destroy it in the act of playful violence at the end of the exhibition.

Location: Power Station of Art, Shangai

MODULE Using the process of repetition, juxtaposition and modulating, most basic visual codes are elaborated into various structures and compositions. This series is about searching for abstract emotions, obscured meanings and forgotten symbolism through mathematical approaches. Or just a formal exercise.

So far, this series is developing in 2 directions: paper and textile. Rhythm is very important part in my work, and patterns, that are a visual rhythm are super apply-able to anything. It’s interesting to me to push my work through different incarnations. It will start as a drawing, then a screen print, then it will become a t-shirt, maybe next it will be a rug, etc. I also like the idea of taking away the mysticism of the medium. Using an art piece to warm your feet or wrap it around your butt. And then have the same piece on your wall, nicely framed.

Modules are printed in my island screenprint studio located in the abandoned sardine factory.
