The work
is made of many layers of plexiglass. Some of them are digital graphics
combined with convex print. I use scans of old photographs from my childhood,
as well as drawings and monotypes. I place used parchment between the
plexiglass layers. placed between transparent layers. “I love him so much, and
yet he bit me” are words of a disappointed rather than physically hurt child.
The trace of a painful experience of a little girl, who is not able to understand
the behaviour of her beloved hamster has been accompanying me up to this day. I
obviously treat it with higher awareness and understanding now. After all, we
are hurt most by those we love... It does not, however, change the fact that
whenever I experience such a situation, it brings back the thoughts and words
of a little girl uttered in disbelief: “I love him so much, and yet he bit me
”.
