Overlap is an installation of 100 double-sided, reflective collages. The collages are made of cut-outs of holographic paper on four different sizes of Plexiglas. The installation spreads through the five windows at the Kimmel Center on West 3rd. Street in groups of twenty double-sided collages per window. These twenty colleges are further divided into four lines. Each line consists of five double-sided collages that are mutually connected with fishing line. As the title of the installation suggests, each collage has something in common with each of the other 100 colleges. This is achieved by the choice of the material as well as by the rhythm of a movement and by repetitious way of grouping the collages. By rendering the same theme in five different colors, "Overlap" is an op-art play in gold, green, blue, dark blue, and silver. Goran Tomcic is an artist and independent curator based in New York.

Wetware is a series of paintings which the artist sees as "personal decorations of the shared mind and body that fuse references to our very contemporary obsessions such as environmental science and biotechnology with primal gestures and various stylistic marks."
