KURAR grew up in a fast-changing world which continues to inspire his work. He takes a critical look at the failings of a society that cannot help but grows exponentially, resulting in an accelerated strain between the social and political aspects of society.

KURAR engages with the irreversable globalisation of our society by meticulously disecting an ever-intensifying stream of information that enriches our daily lives.

His theory revolves around the idea that we have to know where we come from, in order to guide our futures. He uses images of childhood to contrast the crude images of the present; things that were inconceivable only 100 years ago.

He questions whether our generation is subdued by the injustices we can no longer resolve, or by the narrow scope of what we define as perfection.

Kurar leaves us a clear field. A field where we can reclaim our critical faculty, to understand what we were and to what we belong. He proposes that we reflect on where our society is heading, through images that are there not just to shake us up, but to make us understand that our freedom to dream exists, and from those dreams we can once again change our world.
