SOMNOLENCA is an archival print produced following an illustration from the GOOD MORNING cycle. This is a series of over 40 critical "barcode" illustrations for adults, through which I bserved the deepening ofthe crisis that hit the global economy in 2008. The images were produced between 2009 and up till about 2014. SOMNOLENCAillustration is an important artistic document of its time and belongs to so-called conceptual illustration, which is characterized by the fact that its content can be understood without words. SOMNOLENCA was first exhibited as part of my overview exhibition at the Kovićevi dvori gallery in Zagreb in 2011, after which it was shown at the Maribor KIBLA gallery in 2012.
ALKATRAZ in Ljubljana 2013. I received one of thehighest national accolades, the Prešeren Fund Award, for the exhibition at KIBLA in 2014.
