Individual Works
– 21st Century
This is one of three parts of the artwork. The three objects resemble three pairs of feet – boots in a most peaceful and static position.
(Kontemplacija iz cikla 21. Stoletje je poskus intimne postavitve združenih parov objektov v kontemplativni drži.)

fired earthenware in reduction in a traditional kiln
Carriage
Four ceramic objects in a shape of a foot/a boot/a puppet limb are connected with metal parts to assemble a walking machine.
2007
fired earthenware and metal parts
25 x 20 x 60 cm
The walking parts are connected in a way that prevents them from independent movement. Because of their angular shape, the bundle assumes a role of an anchor with the purpose to not encourage but instead to stop the motion.

Fired and glazed earthenware
37 x 33 x 39 cm
Spare Parts
Spare Parts seem to be just leftover parts of a bigger whole. They are set up to convey the impression of coincidence, instantaneousness, dysfunction. We assume a connecting part is missing. What is left is not enough to work as a machine.
(Rezervni deli iz cikla 21.stoletje so celota z neomejenim številom možnosti postavitve saj gre za neorganiziran, nepovezan skup elementov, s čimer se vzpostavlja vtis slučajnosti, trenutnosti, nefunkcionalnosti. Manjka povezovalni del, da bi jih osmislil. Izražajo pasivnost.)

fired stoneware
21 x 21 x 8 cm
This is one of three Turbines. The objects are installed around a circle to convey circular motion.

40 cm diameter, 10 cm height
Active and Passive
The two pairs of boot-like objects are placed under and above a plain, one in a strong upright position supporting the whole, the other one laid down in a passive resting position. The plain in between assumes a role of a tabletop.
2018
Fired and glazed earthenware
The boot-like elements are connected with a pipe which is clearly a part of a longer structure. The rusted look and ragged edges suggest the long forgotten functionality of the item belonging to a mechanical era of iron and steel.
2006

Rusted
The objects are taken from various series and placed on the ground primarily to emphasize their rusty look.
