BIGZ - Former center of alternative culture in Belgrade

Some of my old artwork were created in the BIGZ building. The BIGZ building was the center of an alternative art scene where musicians, painters, sculptors and many others created. I had a studio in the BIGZ for eight years and for me it was an important place where I acquired the basics of painting. The beginning of my artistic work took place here. The period of time I created in this building covers the beginning of high school to the end of college. The hallways, the electricians, the noise from the music studios and other workspace were inexhaustible sources of inspiration for me. Today, looking at these artwork again, I think they have a different value, and that is to document the space that no longer exists. Unfortunately, the sale of this building left the artists without a space to work.
