My work is in its core romantic. Because it embraces the past and wishes to emphasize the grace and purity of existence. The magic of nature, the poetry of apparently dead objects, the combination of elements that give me personal strength and that together take on a different meaning - influence each other's meaning through the changed context in which they are placed - this is also the core of a collage. This transformation aspect symbolizes the transformation that takes place in nature and which takes place in inner nature. Transformation is the constant force in life that I embrace through my work. This gives it a greater meaning than just autobiographical work, but touches on fundamental foundations in life that are recognizable to everyone. Yet it is the small scale, the personal character of my work that creates the real connection.
