My first solo show. Alkatraz Gallery, Ljubljana, Slovenia. The final stage of a one month residency at SCCA Ljubljana.

















The subject of my residency was the alternative cultural centre of Metelkova, a squat from the center of the city, created in 1993 within an abandoned military base that used to belong to the Yugoslav army, that retreated from Slovenia. My response to the given place was negative, because its visual aspect and the ideology connected to independence and autonomy seemed unacceptable.

















Projection, 1,80 x 0,4 m mirror, red paint on wall, 2 x 3,5 m styrofoam modules painted in the colors of the rainbow, acrylic on styrofoam. Also produced a photo slideshow mounted on a TV set and a small 5,5 x 5,5 cm painting, acrylic on canvas, which are not documented in the photos above. More here.
