SERGEI the ARTIST
An interview with a renowned Danish-Ukrainian artist Sergei Sviatchenko appeared in Cold North Magazine. “He spans through the known and the unimaginable, and his artwork cuts through the boundaries of traditional and contemporary visuals, and he elegantly merge pop culture with politics, personal memories, history, architecture and science with logic and dreams”.
Sergei was a dear guest of BDW2013: design professionals and enthusiasts attended his collage workshop, and their works were displayed as a giant collage at the event’s exhibition the next day. We loved it!

Running in the morning through the city (down what the germans call a fussgangerzone) and being amazed by all the grand empty old buildings that reminded me of my Berlin beginnings. Grafitti on buildings. Lovely broken walls with acne'd facades from decades of reverse engineering. Discovering that all the ships on the river were party boats and open till the morning. Sweating so much in one of the clubs, my phone got messed up. Losing phone in said club. Visiting belgrade police station to report a then stolen phone to a twenty-something cop with a doctor's lab coat, listening to Rammstein (loudly) while hacking out my report on a pre-electric typewriter that looked (and sounded) as if it was from some era before typewriters were invented.   Thinking of Naked Lunch. Thinking of Die-Hard. Listening to architects talk about porous facades. Thinking of old smart bombs. Imagining the flash and crunch of several floors of reinforced concrete collapsing in on themselves. Wondering why I'm the only interactive guy here. Why are there so many beautiful women in Belgrade? Why are there so many beautiful women in Belgrade?!
