Sticky Dreams(2026 120x160cm) is based on a real dream of a classmate from my teenage years at art school. This dream, rather this concept, haunted and inspired my creativity profoundly and for a long time. I’ve slightly modified the recently created work. I painted two figures facing each other to emphasize the feeling of narcissism or homosexuality. Bodies becoming desire is not afraid of contradictions. The entire painting has a psychedelic and glamorous feel like looking into a kaleidoscope.
