ARTIST STATEMENT:
Suuls artwork is a fusion between organic and industrial inspirations, aiming to crate as many associations as possible and opening for a wide range of individual interpretations. He consider all his work to be the product of an absurd combination of associations – always expressed in the form of a visual question and addressed to assumed denominators in the public’s cultural background and experience. It is often both positively and negatively charged, capable of generating uncomfortable and macabre associations as well as humorous ones.
