Modern artist
Every genre and every aspect of life fascinates Džozef. The same way a poem by Pablo Neruda or Maya Angelou provokes in him an assertive emotion; “that same way playing my guitar or hitting the keys on my piano makes me feel alive,” he adds.

Artistic Influences
There have been many artists influencing Džozef’s practice and methods but none more than Picasso and Matisse during the first years of his artist life. After arriving in New York, he came to know about some modern artists like Willem de Kooning and Joan Miró and his practice evolved a lot more with their influence.
In addition, reading about Picasso he came across an artist in Photography named Man Ray, who was a genius and innovator in modern photography. “He has now become my biggest influence in the manipulation and creation of abstract and surrealist photography,” Džozef adds.
