The Pattern Boy series of works appears at the intersection of craft, street culture and modern sculpture. The artist uses concrete, a material traditionally associated with construction and the industrial environment.
These faces are literally assembled from the remnants — fragments of the building reality. They refer to the people who shape the city's space: workers, designers, architects. But instead of portrait specifics, the artist chooses a mask, a universal archetype in which individuality is dissolved in a system of signs.
As a result, the series is perceived as a collection of anonymous but recognizable faces — a kind of pantheon of the urban environment. These are not portraits of specific people, but images of those who remain beyond the visible authorship, but form the visual appearance of the world around us.
