Free translation from press: "Saso Vrabic in his work arise from techno history of media and anthropology of his own private world . His mixed media audio-visual and graphic-painting experiments mark his fascination over movies, video games, TV, advertising, music, urban(ism) phenomena and youth culture."

"I once said I made paitings according to the principle of instant realism. I think this is in a way still true. Ten years ago I began transfering digital, electronic images with the traditional technique of painting. An important tension is imperfection, or, as you say, an imperfect translation. A translation from one medium to another."

Sašo Vrabič (From the interview by Bojana Piškur, curator of the exhibition "Obrigado meu amor")

"Private escapism is the alternative way to see and comment the world of passive observer who's sitting in the sofa and eating snacks, while the programme is changing subject through commercials, war reports and comedy. Children are in other room playing war games on computer, because parents don't have time. They have more important thinks to consume on television. Everybody's happy and somewhere else infront of their private boxes."
Sašo Vrabič, 2004
