WELCOME TO MY HAPPY PLACE.

Ceramic birds placed on a metal structure hanging from the ceiling. The metal construction represents the windows. Windows are the increased dimensions of screen resolutions - for example the resolution of Instagram stories, posts, etc. Windows that we open with one click and like. It’s easy to get lost in the likes, and sometimes they affect your whole mood as well.

The theme of the work deals with social networks and the individual lost in that world. But the artwork is also a story of a free spirit. Birds represent freedom as the main motive of the artwork.

Virtual reality has become part of today's normal. In a sense, it has become a reality for some of us. Scrolling through social networks has slowly created that perfect picture of life that we ourselves would like to achieve. That escape from reality is a gradual loss of self. Sometimes the return to reality is harder than we think. The virtual world offers various possibilities, it occupies time with sometimes funny things, dramatic, romantic - you can compare it to the term of daydreaming. This is what social networks do, leading you to daydreaming and hiding from yourself. 

                         For a moment, it sometimes becomes your happy place.
