Original artwork description:

One of my false childhood memories is that Kojak, my grandfather's dog, was a horse. I wanted to see my memory in a picture, so I created one editing some real family photos. Then, based on the fake photo, I recreated it with a collage, using only familiar patterns from various fabrics we had (which I took from photos of our houses). The result is (for me) absolutely true, and furthermore, concentrated. That is because of those patterns' intensity for me, they have captured my gaze for hours during childhood daydreaming and somehow this fantasy world of mine has returned through my gaze to the pattern itself.
