Don’t Forget Me,
OPUS; Sarajevo City of Light,
SARAJEVO WAR 1992-95;
BOSNIA in Tragic WAR,
POETIC Beauty and Strength of the Human Spirit, City Life and Street Scenes,
During the years of terror cast upon Bosnia and my city of Sarajevo,
Photography remained my only medium of artistic expression. My painting conditions were nonexistent, (shortage of materials, time and peace). My photographs were captured while walking between steps. Each step representing life or death, In this town of sorrows, agony surrounded by walls of hatred and evil, I encountered the most extraordinary beings in this world. They are genuine people, without hatred; people who survive inside the walls of a besieged city, without electricity, fuel, food, water, etc. Sarajevo became the massacred city where every new day is awaited as a miracle; awaited with patience and disbelief that you are still alive. There was a light that continued to glow from this destroyed city and its people; they had not lost their spirit. Exhibitions and concerts were still being attended by people who shed the tears of happiness, knowing that they couldn’t kill the art. A horrifying beauty was born.
Picture is based on light and darkness counterpoints, with elements of Chiaroscuro. Acutely observed realism brought a new level of emotional intensity, Strong, dramatic expression, Observation of physical and psychological reality, Symbolism,
Metaphysics ART, Perception beyond Appearance’s, POETIC TransRealism,
Perception beyond any veil, including the veil of religion,
”I’ve brought you a mirror. Look at yourself and remember me.”,
