New Giglée Print 'Naked'
A new giglée print has been made, this time of an old drawing of mine from 1981 when I was a student at the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb, Croatia. I made it after an open-air concert where I was intoxicated not only by the music and beer but also by resting my head in the lab of a gorgeous young man, this was a cocktail that made my head and body spin.
The text in the sketchbook from 9th of May 1981:
...At a (open air) rock concert, drinking beer, it is hot, the music hard, there is not one thought in my mind. Am a little drunk and have enjoyed a mans body as my pillow, all my instincts are slowly surfacing, forgot the music, everything, except the caress.
And now the concert is over
I could have eaten him right there on the lawn

At the moment I’m occupied with the thoughts of transferring the old archetypes and symbols of mankind into present times. Working on a huge canvas 180 x 180 cm with a liberated, happy and free Eve in Paradise, without shame and guilt and other useless feelings that has been connected to this female symbol through various religions for thousands of years. But I feel I need to liberate myself before being able to finish the painting, so I also make drawings in order to find into the true meaning of the real woman and real man.

Transforming Eve
"Eve"
oil on canvas
180 x 180 cm
Working on my hugest canvas till now. There is still some way to go before Eve is completed. One technical problem was about her navel! According to the myth she was created as a grown up, not born and therefore without the umbilical cord!
I feel a strong need to change the old, stagnated archetypes among mankind.
I see Eve as a strong, liberated, free person, living with her natural powers of wisdom and sexuality free from the dogmas of religion, free from guilt and shame। As she will be liberated so will Adam
