„За еднократна употреба” е серия обекти, рисунки и скулптури – всекидневно употребявани предмети, свързани с ежедневието на автора. Уголемени, те променят функцията на обекта - от незначителен непотребен отпадък той се превръща в артефакт с естетическа стойност. Поредицата поставя под въпрос ключови за изкуствата понятия – красиво и грозно, ценно и непотребно и т.н.. Откривайки естетическата стойност в употребените и ненужни вещи, „За еднократна употреба” представя отпадъка като носител на специфичен емоционален заряд.
Експозицията си поставя за цел да обърне полюсите на днешната ситуация на медийна истерия, масова продукция и консумация, да провокира клишираните представи за красота и стойност. „За еднократна употреба” търси уникалната идентичност на масовия продукт, формирана от запечатани в него истории.

Disposable
Disposable is a series of drawings, objects and sculptures – things for everyday use, connected with the author’s life. They enlarge, they change the object’s function – from unnecessary, unimportant waste, they become artifact with aesthetic value. The series is questioning key notions of art – the beautiful and the ugly, the valuable and the unnecessary, etc. Discovering the aesthetic value of the used and useless things, Disposable presents the waste as object with specific emotional charge.
The exhibition aims to switch the poles of the contemporary situation of media hysteria, mass production and consumption, to provoke the clichés of perceptions and values. For Disposable seeks the unique identity of mass product, formed by the stories layered on it.
