Peter Baka
I have devoted my life to making things. I collect objects which l incorporate into my works. They hold a memory of things past, a different life that l can’t really know, but l begin to construct a narrative with. The story draws me to it “a story of hurt, revenge, love, intensity, or joy” the emotions of the human condition, an interwinding of shapes, systems, and ideas. The assemblages represent an extended playfulness of how we live our lives through these daily acts of experiences
