Artist Statement about the works:
ZIPPED COLLECTION, 2010
A zipper is commonly a popular gadget that joins two
sides of fabric, leather and numerous other materials. It’s utilized in the
fashion industry, accessories and many other everyday items. Zippers increase
or decrease the size of an opening to allow or restrict the access of objects,
join or separate two ends, attach or detach separable parts, and connect /
disconnect things.
Personally, I see zippers as very intriguing devices.
They produce in me a sense of wonder and discovery. The images from the Zipped
Collection come up to my mind
unexpectedly and enigmatically. They seem to be translating my point of view
about the stages in life, the daring to quietly observe what it is and what it
could be. The audacity needed to be closing or opening new situations. They provoke
in me the ability to examine how the parts are sustained when they are together
or recognize when they need to be taken apart. I figuratively associate them
with the present and future of our civilization's current matters.
