The work WANNABE reverses the ancient fable by Phaedrus. In this catalog, of a new silent beauty, is the Nightingale, which claims its hopes dashed. The Nightingale leaves and forgets his melodiousness, giving up one's vocal beauty, wants to be the peacock. The slogan is: to win in beauty, shining, fascinating. Basically they are all "visual fetishes" very popular, surely we've seen in magazines and advertising campaigns. They are everyday objects that have accumulated layers of meanings and interpretations. Who better than a visual artist, who the photographer is, can use these everyday objects to make a new artistic speech?
