Fascination with color is why I started to paint: it pushed me out of my career as a graphic designer towards the uncertain path of a freelance self-employed artist. I experiment a lot with texture and incorporate playful twists of imagination to provoke myself and a viewer to re-see everyday natural and cultural phenomena. Into these simple narratives, I interweave my personal mysteries. Techniques – be it direct paint drips or installations - result in telling stories that reflect a very subjective truth and history.
