Born in some country that no longer exists, Landkee’s first years were spent in various classes; becoming, as one of his teachers liked to say, “all-around underdeveloped”. Teen years were spent in the Bay Area, partially forgetting one language and not fully acquiring the other. Taking few more foreign languages in high school didn’t help either. However, lack of linguistic ability didn’t deter Landkee from traveling; visiting, oddly enough, central parts of geographic regions or countries. Mostly interested in looking at art, ideas were penned up in deep consciousness until they burst out. Hence the explanation of artist’s collages: random, absurd or nonsensical.

Landkee on his work: I was doing a little bit of everything, but ended up with collages. When I see an image, sometimes I’ll have an idea how I want to use it – and if the original is not lost by the time I find a complementary image – I’ll create that. But most of the time I just create collages and ideas emerge out of them on their own.
