The subject of the photo series "Red Zone" was inspired by the aesthetics of the usual fire prevention boards and the safety posters , where the red color always indicates a zone of active consideration, and possible injuries and destructions.On the fire prevention boards the red colour concentrates our view in the extreme situation, as well as because of its sensual activity calls us for the immediate decisive actions.
In this series red color represents the key point of not the necessarily destructive, but always the highest activity in the interaction of two different media,it marks the first (or the last) screaming in the dialogue of mechanic and organik.This project, besides the photos,can include depending on the room 2-3 installations with modified (cut, bent under 90 degrees or mounted round a column) fire boards with all accessories.
