I consider the individual as the archetypal place for Utopia. Belief systems such as our trust in digital technology take a role in developing our cultural sphere and tell us something about ourselves. Any belief reflects our trust in being human, in our capacity to perform, to think and make; the possibility of existence and resistance. I aim to play with symbols and transform them into new considerations, such as the concept of heroism.
