FILLED EMPTINESS unique worlds
The fragmented pictures are an attempt to grasp the last disappearing archaic world of silence- rest of people and animals in harmony with nature( as a part of nature). These are threatened worlds of growing urbanisation by growing noise and traffic, advancing stone, housing and damaged relations between humans. These are the threatened worlds. The fragmented form should be understood as vanishing – volatile- dissolving.
