Marko Gavrilovic uses light and industrial materials to create formally innovative sculptures and drawings of natural forms. Connecting his work to the same sensibility that gave rise to Impressionism, Gavrilovic is motivated by his interest in human and animal forms, which he represents through assemblages of loose, colored scraps of cut and polished Plexiglas that resemble modernist biomorphic shapes. Gavrilovic likens his creative process to the act of assembling a puzzle, describing it as an imaginative system rooted in intuitive and fast-paced decision-making. Lighting is a key component in his works—they are often lit from within like lamps—a feature the artist attributes to his interest in design and his study of applied arts.
