With my artwork I want to...

...find new places where I have not been before,
places inside myself, outside myself.
Reach a state of dissolution, but of total wholeness
.

...see things not seen before,

in a different way than before.
See the details that have no room in the everyday life.
Detach shapes and colors from their object,
then put together to a new whole, entity of its own.

...convey feelings and states of mind.

With some of my more recent work I want to express a feeling of hope and faith,
about reaching goals, love and much more.
With other pieces I want to expose feelings of loneliness,
distress and sorrow.

...process my own questions about existensialism,

why are we here? for what? for whom? where are we going? what is the purpose?
