This project was created and happened in December last year,
titled "People go to rejection a lot"
The knowledge that makes up this project is a set of learning throughout this and my life.
The first trigger in the series happened during quarantine when I was forced to figure out how to take an event photo, that is. I quickly replaced my job, which was stopped due to the inability to move, with something that would bring me money. So I came up with the idea to start selling my pictures and I lived on selling them on Instagram for 6 months.
Painting awakened a lot in me. I have been drawing and painting all my life;
it is something that fills my soul. When I make art with my two hands.
After that, I applied to the Dev9t Festival with a project and the idea that for four days people have the opportunity to paint with their eyes closed with my assistance.
The festival was canceled due to a pandemic, but I did not want to give up my idea; I knew it was valuable and I had to materialize it. I did an event that lasted seven hours and 14 people took pictures with their eyes closed.
After this event, I continued to follow my instincts and started painting a picture of 2 meters with my eyes closed. I'm still painting it. It's a picture of my life. It is a picture that has toured half of Belgrade. #RMperformans - that's my therapy.
When your eyes are closed, you react from the subconscious mind.
