When a felt tip of a pen touches the paper and I start drawing a line, when I read a script and think of a world for the characters to live in, when I look through a viewfinder to frame a photograph – some kind of magic happens. It feels like my mind materialises and offers the outer world and people that surround me a glimpse into who I am. Making art can be a very personal and meditative experience but at the same time I hope to leave a mark in the humanity.
There are moments when my mind overflows with thoughts and I feel the urge to put them down on paper or make them into a model. As I grow older and life presents more complicated challenges, the artworks evolves.
Movement, constant change in nature, human interaction, emotions, afterlife – these themes are often present in my work. I enjoy creating artwork in solitude, but I also find film- and theatre-making very rewarding where a creative collaboration is required. Multiple discussions with directors, actors, cinematographers, art department transform the ideas into a new world where we can tell a story and make a statement.
