Artist’s Statement
I am interested in many kinds of
techniques, materials and their different cobinations. Breathing of life, contact with nature, sensitivity and power.
Colours, light, space and the movement of the brush are important in making of aquarelles and oil paintings.
Painting is an intense process between the mind and the hand.
Videos, photos and installations enable another
way of thinking and technical processing than painting.
" It makes me happy to produce what did not exist before - and then, it appears!"
