…Talking about the subjects of the \u201cClowns can\u2019t have babies\u201d series is really difficult, since any attempt to decode the artworks will only result in a very personal understanding of the works in regards of one’s own personal experiences. The subjects of the artworks are based on common human feelings with emphasis on the sexuality factor. The only difference is that it tends to narrate deeper and more subconscious layers. Sexuality as a factor that generates a broad spectrum of all kinds of relations gets more focus and manages to form a considerable part of the meaning which often is accompanied with a dark humor. A chaotic world that all the creatures, objects and humans are put together, mixed or related to each other in a maniac and an apparent irrelevant way which eventually produce a new meaning and space in the artworks. All these events together tend to convert the artworks to a poetic phenomenon which the artworks themselves get the chance to introduce their poetic standards to the audience, while the writings on the artworks get to finalize its poetic mystery….<\/p>\n
