VEDRAN AND THE CLOUD

2010

video, 6' 39''

-

in this video work I'm holding clouds made of styrofoam in my hands, dressed in a tight golden costume that covers my head and body

disguised, I resemble a superhero with extraordinary powers

I play with the idea of power

Croatian phrase "vedriti i oblačiti" ("bind and loosen") is used as a reference to someone who has huge - political, financial, economic, social... - power or holds an important position

analogy with my name - Vedran: sunny day, a day without a cloud

in this case, I'm the one who "vedri i oblači" ("binds and loosens")
