Aside from the aesthetic credentials of my creative endeavours and the great personal challenge to combine techniques of artists such as Caravaggio, Velazquez and Vermeer along with my own ones,- the conceptual aims apparent in most of my current work and ideas is to question the contemporary importance of iconic subject matters, as many of them convey emotional and human values that cannot be restricted into specific art-historical eras. Also I seek to establish a paradox between nostalgia and contemporary relevance, and to bring forth a debate about this theme.
