CONFLICT AND VISUAL CULTURE PROJECT Click on any link to visit the artist's online gallery.
Elena Papanikolakis The Drone dream series is my first body of work using photographs together with mixed media. My aim is to create collages that evoke a dream-like acceptance of a scene that is resolved, yet uneasy. Using an interchanging creative process that relies on drone/automation, dream/randomness and moments of lucidity where key decisions are made, I cultivate the difference between what is concrete and what is in the mind. Drone/automation can infiltrate the creative process until a point when the artist/remote-controller takes over. Dream/randomness reflects the collision of imagery and sensory experiences in the mind, and an aesthetic that hinges on impossibility.
