"Polako" means "slowly" in Montenegrin. When I first came here, the word I heard most often when I wanted to do something with someone or ask them for something was "Polako." In the culture I grew up in, everything happened very quickly and was results-oriented. In my new city, it's the opposite. Things may move slowly, requiring patience, but the aim is for better results. Perhaps they're right; the longevity of quickly done things is debatable. Our contemporary culture is like that too, everything is based on consumption. Art fields are also affected by this trend. Many artists or works without a past become popular with instant attention and then disappear after a while. This is sad in the long run. But when artists who don't get the recognition they deserve face these situations, they question themselves and their art, feeling inadequate and unsuccessful. As someone who has experienced this a lot, I am a keen observer. But speed is not necessary. What's important is to be lasting. Yes, this is very difficult. It's really hard to endure life and make your production sustainable. I must be patient. I need to mature my ideas. Slower, more polako. Surely, our art will be appreciated. There is a hidden connection between slowness and faith.

In this collection, I have returned to my architectural world once again. I have designed new compositions for depth. I moved away from colors and focused on textures. I tried to draw attention to changing animations in the background and spontaneously formed pixel layouts in the foreground.
