About exhibition
The exhibition "Persons" presents three series of works: works based on the art of Malevich and their reworking; a series with digital fictional characters, avatars for social networks; as well as portraits of real people, reworked in the author's manner. All three series are united by the digital format and pixelation, which creates a kind of filter, a border with the material world, the world of photographic documentation.

The exhibition "Persons" is the second exhibition in the series*, aimed at knowing oneself through creativity, psychology and the emergence of linguistic neural networks, through self-reflection and introspection. The modern digital era offers us a life divided into offline and online space, and digital art is, rather, an aesthetics of the online. The term "Person" is interesting to me as a phenomenon that allows us to realize the possibility of constructing our digital image separately from the real one, through self-presentation on social networks or through our own creativity. At the same time, we often rely on how we want to see our ideal, imaginary viewer - our "other".

The expression "they meet you by your clothes" in pixel art is an opportunity, using a semi-abstract square-forming technique, to create an image of a "distant ship" that can be read only by its silhouette, which does not contain unnecessary information and therefore resembles a mask more than a real person. We can imagine this character and saturate it with our own meanings. The work of Malevich, especially his series "Peasants", became the starting point for creating minimalist pixel images. His approach to idealized images is close to me in its simplicity and laconicism. But the more we detail the image, the more information we get about the person and the closer we get to his true "Me".

*The first exhibition "Childhood" was held on October 24 in Budva (Becici) and was dedicated to the inner child.
