An artist whose images seem to dance
For Bozo, who did not undertake any formal academic art education, art is a part of his ordinary life, a natural expression of the unconscious and the whimsicality in the mundane. This has allowed him to develop his own unique visual language with a free imagination, coupled with a bold and conflicting use of color.
In the colorful and fantastical world that he creates, these whimsical characters are endowed with anthropomorphic qualities-wide eyes, toothy smiles, dancing and jiggling awkwardly, happy and uninhibited yet subtly unsettling.
Bozo moved to London in 2017, where he's currently based. His journey to the British capital involved a 27-hour bus trip.
He was looking for a bigger stage to practice his first interest in life, break dancing.
Back then, he couldn't speak a complete English sentence. He found a job making sandwiches and then worked as a waiter and bartender while his English improved.
There was also another hobby that he never gave up, drawing. During the restaurant's off-peak period, he made hundreds of drawings and sketches on a small notebook, which was given to him to write down customers' orders.
Bozo started to post his drawings on social media, as his brother suggested, and that's how his talent became recognized.
