Artist’s Statement

I regularly exhibit my work that calls for a variety of techniques and reflects my deep concern about natural, hardly visible elements, social and geographic aspects of our environment and the way they relate to one's identity.
The boundary between visible and invisible is the starting point of a work process on memory, its transmission and on perception. How the invisible can be neared from different standpoints of the eye - and how multiple realities can be reflected through images and objects according to the place our gaze settles on.
