Within my work, I tell stories based on the studies of languages, phonetics and writing. I am fascinated by all the aspects that occur in the transmission of information surrounded by the context of languages and identity. The greatest invention of mankind is so abstract, that it provides me with a great breeding ground, from which I draw curiosity and ideas.
Driven by this irrepressible urge to explore, I create drawings, paintings, sculptures, installations, texts and sounds, that are characterized by poetry, humor and a casual lightness.
