Creating a context for a slow immersion into the everyday landscape, where the landscape becomes the main subject.
Using technology, the camera's recording and zooming features, along with environmental elements, helps reduce human involvement. However, the practice remains human-centered, as the camera doesn't independently choose where to set up, frame the shot, or decide when to start recording.
The documentary aspect is manifested in the approach to the results of these observations and the attentive waiting for events. By preserving and displaying each repetition, the practice becomes a performance, and the resulting video serves as a testimony and evidence of the action.
Everyday life, when viewed through the practice of observation, gains new meaning and metaphorical power, transforming ordinary moments into significant artistic acts.

2024, Book
The 12 dialogue meetings of Andre Breton and a number of his colleagues in the surrealist movement, which took place between January 1928 and August 1932, were supposed to contribute to the development of a direct attitude of their participants to their own sexuality, in addition to psychoanalysis and metaphysics. The texts of this edition present a complete record of these "research sessions".

Ascent
2023, Identity & Product
Ascent is an app for creating mindful screen habits.
Using basic drafting tools (compass and ruler) and 'draft' aesthetic as a key to identity. You can draw separate items each time for a specific task, or you can create a chaotic, vast system from which details can later be extracted. Selecting a theme based on feeling and blot, for a pause you need less dynamics—static, parallel lines. For focus—circles and semicircles, creating the dynamics of 'waves of concentration'.
Ascent is currently available on Android via Google Play, and it’s coming to iOS very soon.

Meant Trophy
2023, Identity
Art residency for electronic musicians is a space where musicians cohabit for two weeks, collaborating and exploring electronic music. A crucial part of the project is the deconstruction of the musical process. The residency focuses on exploring new boundaries of self-representation and emphasizes the creative process over the final result. Consequently, the residency adopts an 'open' approach, willingly showcasing behind-the-scenes processes. For example, it features online streaming of jam sessions and concerts.
