and with the relations that shape and are shaped by environments.
This interest is the ground from which my artistic practice grows, stretching between naturalistic painting and conceptual drawing, often combined with writing and bordering on installation. Through these material and embodied practices, feedback loops emerge that nourish my engangement with phenomena.
Starting out with studies of intricate shapes, as well as artificial, dazzling materials and colourful play of light, I soon broadened my focus from the surfaces of things to the relations beneath and between. Striving to understand what characterises a thing or a situation beyond its visible surface gives me the impulse to develop an abstracting stylistic idiom, which is sometimes more related to surreal, puzzle-like clusters of picture elements than it is to the representation of a specific setting.
I love gardens and the diversity of inspiration that these manifold ecosystems give me: vibrant colours, varied spatial, temporal and sensual relations as well as historical and symbolic considerations allow for a multi-faceted approach that keeps me enthused.
