I am Matija Vid Peček Black, a conceptual rope artist, performer, and photographer based in Zagreb, Croatia. My art combines the aesthetics of rope art with darkness, introspection, and emotional exploration.
My art is a mirror of my soul—shaped by my experiences, emotions, and a deep curiosity about the human psyche. Nature, with its intricate symphony of patterns, often whispers inspiration to me, guiding my creative journey.
My creative journey begins in the quiet corners of introspection and dreams. I let concepts and themes simmer in my mind, then experiment with ways to bring them to life, crafting each piece with care and emotion.
Through my art, I delve into the raw essence of vulnerability, the dance of power dynamics, and the delicate threads of trust and sensuality. I weave in the mystique of the occult and symbolic props, creating layers of depth and intrigue.
My gender identity and sexual orientation are an integral part of my identity and therefore influence my art in various ways. For example, I may explore themes related to gender identity, sexuality, and relationships in my art.
