Magic Lantern
My activity is structured like a game somewhere between painting and handiwork. I start with elements I come across in everyday life and which catch my eye. I try and understand why they arouse an interest in me, I handle them, I separate them from their functionality, I digest them, I shift them.
My painting is gradually built while translating this process.
My paintings and installations create spaces on a human scale, spaces in which it is possible to immerse yourself. Through this mirror I try to welcome the onlooker to a cosy place for exchange, so that once away from the exhibition he will want to find that feeling of freedom, of full potential again and it will grow in him and spread around him. I steal what is called 'real life' and the loot goes into my so called 'fictional' universe.
