Video Space Microscopy explores how we see and experience space and matter. By interweaving video recordings of the gallery space with microscopic images of materials present in the space/ of built environements—such as aluminum, concrete, steel, and glass—and 3D simulations, the work transforms microstructural topographies into abstract landscapes. It reflects on the idea of matter as a dynamic, vibrant, and unstable phenomenon, challenging the boundaries between visible and invisible, real and simulated. The video invites viewers to think about liminal zones of perception, where the tangible and intangible aspects of space and matter converge.

Based on radiological scans of the author’s brain (MRI, tractography, 2012), the video digitally transforms scientific data into dynamic abstract forms and patterns that echo the intangible mental and affective states. By interweaving visual and verbal elements, the work invites reflection on the relationship between mind, emotion, and the brain’s physiological basis of these mental states.

The video combines abstract video recordings of light-kinetic sculptures in motion together 3D simulations of them. This interplay of digitally simulated and analogue visual effects creates a topology of hybrid virtuality, which, particularly in the form of video projections that constitute an integral part of the installation together with the light objects, blurs the distinct difference between physical and digitally generated realities, while still being presented on the same experiential level.

The video takes the viewer on an imaginary fantasy journey. Fragments of figures dissolve and mesh with abstract patterns in motion, simulating the body’s inner dynamics, from the corporeal – like the structure of blood vessels – to subtle psycho-emotional and cerebral spaces and dynamics.

The video is dedicated to a friend, renowned Slovenian composer, academic and pianist JM, who passionately celebrated the miracle of music and life. RIP JM (1926–2022).

Optical Diffraction is a site-specific video installation in the form of a diptych: the upper part presents a video projection (Bodyfraction, Hyperoptics) that opens up a way into an imaginary topography in motion, combining and mixing different kinds of visible, invisible (microscopic), and simulated realities.

The video Hyperoptics examines the technologically extended forms of visual perception that are enabled through the application of advanced optical research tools used in microscopy.

By mixing colourful abstract light patterns and fragments of figurative reality the video aims to visualize a kind of inner psychological landscape, where words, thoughts, memories, emotions and desires combine and coexist in a highly fluid, intuitive way.

The video Bodyfraction parallels microscopic images of fragments of the artist’s body (tooth enamel, skin, nails, hair etc.) with recordings of drawings and light-sensitive objects created on their basis. Drawings were digitally processed towards simulating the chemical process called ‘reaction diffusion’ which models (mathematically or visually) the behaviour of two chemicals in a solution as they mix. Such animated drawings form a fractal-like patterns and together with modified recordings of reflective light-works surfaces they create an entry into imaginary hidden topography (macro, micro or nano dimensions) in motion.

The video creates an entry into fictional reality, where objects are transformed into fleeting luminary apparitions – softened, multiplied, liquified forms levitating through warped or non-gravitational space.

Material objects (sculptures) are projected into virtual, fluid spatiality, appearing as dematerialised floating, kinetic light forms, freed of the constraints of time, mass and gravity.

The music captured artist’s imaginations of coldness and isolation as well as visions of shiny spectacles produced by sharpened light projected into immersive underwater depthness. Killer Whale (Orcinus Orca), one of Arctic animals threatened by extinction caused by environmental changes, is a metaphorical expression of icy beauty and power grounded in an anxious awareness of primal existential solitude and transience.

The repeated kaleidoscopic video was created on the basis of X-ray image of a spine and projected back over the original radiological image printed on an aluminum support. Such projection creates layering, a kind of of spatial superposition into repetitive hypnotic pattern.

The kaleidoscopic video is based on radiological recordings of the author's brain. The recording of neural connections (nerve tracts) shown by tractography (diffusion MRI) is computer-mirrored and projected onto two parallel plexiglass plates, on which an abstracted form of tractogram image is printed. Spatial installation based on video projection produces a volumetric but intangible light body in motion.

Video Vanitas – Self-portrait presents a hypnotic image of the continuous dissolution of the author's face, skull and brain. The repetitive liquefying interplay between the exterior and the technologically-visualized exterior posits the question of visible and invisible, physical and mental. However, the image of the skull is not only a metaphor for the transience of life and the inevitability of death; in relation to the sound of rhythmic respiration it evokes death as a faithful companion of life and its faithful shadow, and in turn illuminates the meaning and value of life, heightening the consciousness of human existence.

The installations Kaleidoscopic Gaze and Spiral Floating are based on digitally- processed radiological images of my brain activity while contemplating Duchamp's Anemic Cinema, which was conceived as an optic dispositive inducing a four-dimensional spatial-temporal perceptive experience in the viewer (by alternating the concave and convex effects of spiral swirling). The kaleidoscopic pattern of the video aims to similarly expand the viewer's perception and consciousness; the repetitive, hypnotic pattern of light projected onto the image reflected by a mirror produces a layering of fractally-fragmented reflections, that is, a virtual multi-dimensional space in motion.

The video installation Butterfly uses radiological images of the author's brain responding to different colors. The image of a butterfly changing colors is formed by a light reflection of a video that is being projected onto a horizontal image on a mirror. It alludes to the concept of the "butterfly effect", which in chaos theory posits that slight, even infinitesimally small variations in the initial conditions of a dynamic system may produce extreme and unpredictable results in other space and time coordinates: that a butterfly flapping its wings could set off a hurricane on the other side of the planet. The shape on the mirror is a graphically processed image of my brain; the butterfly reflection is a metaphor for the power of our "invisible" thoughts, our emotions, our so-called mental worlds, conscious or unconscious, that keep changing the physical reality surrounding us. Butterfly deals with the interconnectedness of the visible and the invisible and questions the causal relations between the perceptible and the intelligible.

The video work Pulsation presents pulsating light phenomena, the bodily and the technologically generated hybrid as a luminous apparition composed by layering reflected light, video projections of radiological scans of the artist’s brain and related manipulated recorded video images.

This kaleidoscopic rhythmic structure of a recurring pattern is not a computer-generated picture, but a video recording taken on a digital camera and a kaleidoscopic instrument. The infinite recurrence of one and the same element in micro- and macro-measures within the fragmental but also well-ordered kaleidoscopic structure gives the impression of a hypnotic and meditative state. The projection of simulated vitriol into an architectural window niche reminds one of the ways light is used in sacral architecture, and at the same time challenges our perception of differentiation between the real and the illusory.

The image of the brain created using medical imaging technology presents primary insight into the interior of the human skull. The movement of fluid forms is both concrete and abstract. The circular framing and the dynamics of the organic pattern create a hypnotic picture, which can be experienced as a visual equivalent to the flow of as yet articulated, abstract states of thought, unconnected meanings, fragments of memory, feelings and more.
