My paintings are known for their unique style which causes some confusion to the viewer. The 'absent presence' is the guiding principle that plays an important role in the architectural yet organic works. The diverse use of color emphasizes the vibrancy and energy of the image.
This color palette is my signature and a natural fact that makes my work unique. In my works you will recognize my style, technique and the contradiction of the busy organic and the limiting architectural.
My paintings invite you to feel the longing that reigns in all. The desire to escape the daily routine for a while by taking us into the atmosphere of mysticism and drama. They invite you to feel what the liveliness of the colours, getting lost in the different dimensions and the mischievous fact of the other does to the viewer. Throughout my art I tell a story that can be interpreted differently by the viewer.
“Confusion and Knowing, lrelease and holdn, tight aarchitectural with an organic movement "
Through my works I also create the question of whether this is a destructive or a constructive fact. I want to highlight both sides, because after destruction there is always construction, albeit with the necessary change and a new view of our human existence versus nature that goes its own way.
