The artist on the project SIT-NO

Sit - no (274 pcs)

Asking questions of creativity, and processes or conditions that lead to the creativity as something that reaches ordinary exercise, work and only work. Often leads to the formation of a mannerist approach in which only the drill formal and aesthetic structuring works while conceptually inventive and almost always stays away or get lost in the multitude of similarities.

The series of papers sit-but that was the "task" which I created for himself, and referred to the daily forcing creativity through daily work that I have dealt with during the entire 274 days of arbitrary isolation. The series of operations is called Sit-no by exclamation soldiers in military service used to countdown the days until the end of the service period, for example. "154 Sit-no".

This kind of expression may be considered also as keeping a personal journal whose only goal is to reach a single digit countdown in the army known as the period when the "zero hit in the head." This assumption opens the question of everyday art (the artist's) actions resulting from or does not result in the formalist, material or tangible act. One clear and equally fragmented, equally divided time period of 24 hours is represented by one work the most common format 20x30 cm in a variety of two- and sometimes three-dimensional shapes.So this work could be viewed as a kind of diary record of performance, inscribed "visual text." These works can be viewed as "creative push-ups", or the results of a masochistic art and drilerskog access Art.
