ARTIST STATEMENT
In my artistic work I deal with internal and external structures that correlate with each other. Natural forms overlap clear constructions, a flower winds around a fence and fine lines swallow the intense color behind it. My work is a kind of reflection of our current existence, shaped by mutually complementary contradictions.
I'm trying to capture a sense of the zeitgeist rather than reproducing what I have seen and experienced. My works are more of a conjecture than a fact, invisible instead of visible, doubtful instead of firmly convinced. This is also reflected in the choice of mediums, materials, shape and color. I mainly work with graphite, black watercolor, black and white film and text on paper - all mediums, materials and techniques that are very cautious, but strong in their expressiveness and direct translation.

PS: I recently started experimenting with flowers.
