Artist Statement
My name is Ante Vojnovic. I’m busy contemplating the inexistent. I found through creativity a way of life, inventing a far away world. I keep my distances, don’t want to fall in the norm. I want that far away world stripped from preconceived idea of the future or career and without clear out coming, to be guided by one and only path; mine, no sided taken, no cause to defend but just feel the moment. Mesmerized by the excess, the nonsense and the madness, the neutral bores me. Always above the little worries. I love to fight with the universal by devoting myself to the anecdotalism with a coating of beauty.

I realize that I am a mystic, cultivating the nothingness, the need for loneliness is the risk of misanthropy. I discovered how a lonely man is in good company. To be an artist just like toxic man is to live with withdrawals that can only be overcome by the success.

When I am about to create a piece, I do not approach it with an analytical way but rather with intuitive one. When something comes to me and I feel moved by it, I just trust my feelings, I believe that art comes from self confidence and also from one’s ideas, which puts them to a metaphysical level, simply put; I don’t do much, don’t force anything just keep my eyes open staring at the world and try to be connected, all is useable, chairs, tables have an attractive appeal to me as far as I can recall, I imagine them sculptural, non functional, etc…and one morning you go down to the atelier and start creating.
