SOLD WORKS

The walls of Mala Galerija were painted by me in colours that I had used previously as a wall painter for 19 different interiors. The colours were chosen by those who commissioned the works, and these commissions were my sole income in 1998. The gallery shows all 19 of the interiors divided vertically. The colours that I used are laid out horizontally, in equal proportions, and in chronological order.
19 photos document my work.
After closing time, images of the left and right halves of my back were projected onto the windows of the exhibition space.

At the opening I gave a performance, the sound track of which was played during the exhibition.

1998/99
