my opinion, provide a comment of society, because
I feel that we are lost. As each day goes by, I am becoming
more and more bitter towards society and
people. I like to keep my art intimate, instead of sensationalist.
Art should speak about something beautiful,
while today’s art tries too hard to provide a commentary
on society. Voicing your opinion is good, but
“It may sound contradictory, but I am against design,
against commercialisation that imposes various
trends upon us. You either like something or you
don’t, and the only trend for me is the floral season”
this is too much. Andy Warhol voiced his opinion and
he was excellent. The people today are too preoccupied
with money, which makes them lost.
You used to host and produce a TV show called “Life
with Flowers”, in which you tried to show the public
how to create various arrangements by themselves
with little money and a lot of imagination. What
were the reactions to that show and why was it cancelled?
There were various topics in the show, from how to
put only one flower into a vase to more glamorous
things. Reactions were really good, but there were
also plenty of criticism in the papers, and I don’t really
know how to deal with that properly. Of course, I
like to hear some constructive criticism, but the other
type of criticism just doesn’t make any sense to me.
But people really loved the show and I was constantly
approached on the street, by both grannies from the
market and intellectuals. I stopped doing the show
because I simply didn’t feel like it anymore, and it
was taking up too much of my time.
Along with flowers, you’re also active in the fields of
design, scenography, you work as an art director
and photographer for the “Lifestyle” section of one of
our weekly national papers. You truly epitomize the
interdisciplinary approach that dominates our time.
Do you have any other interests?
Sometimes I lose track of my criteria and I start working
on just about anything, but I choose what I like.
Simply put, I go where the water takes me. I don’t
really have ambitions to achieve grand things, as I
spend most of my time playing around. Every now
and then, I even refuse some major offers because
I don’t feel like working on something artificial. I like
to work on scenography because that is very creative
in the sense of interpreting the text. I haven’t really
read that much in my life and I am not much
of a reader, but when I work on scenography, I really
have to be focused while reading the text. That
makes me realize the true richness of that text. You
must work with your heart and be honest, and that is
not easy to do these days.
What are your plans for the future?
I’ll go where the water takes me. I truly don’t know.
