Fully concentrated – bang! On the essential. That’s what I want. I’m looking for a language. It’s made up of different materials like drawings, objects and photographs. But the tempo, nuances and content make it a whole. I talk about the larger issues that in my mind have a place in art. The constant questions of who we are. Us humans. Why did I become this way and what do I do with what I’ve got?
Starting with my own story, I engage in a conversation with history. By interjecting my work with existing pictures, buildings and realities I understand more. For me, art is about overcoming your limitations. My work is about trying to understand the meaning of it all. Really. Chaos and order. Light and darkness. And a desire to get them in balance.
