Field of activity
My surrealistic-symbolic images and paintings feature predominantly the human being but also the interactions between polarities. In my images and themes I move from a surreal existence to dimensions where the creativity’s own dynamics lead to new image and space structures.
I like to produce and create “series” in which the original topic of an idea can be artistically explored in as many ways as possible until the series arrives at a natural end. My fascination of experimenting with various oil techniques motivates me passionately to constantly refine my range of painting techniques.
