                        *1984 in Munich, Germany

My process is to look out for deficiencies, what there is to add or omit. Then I express these shortcomings, something that is missing in me or in the environment. In a way, I am expressing wishes in my work, fill in gaps or remedy shortcomings.

I understand art as blueprints of reality and this is mine. I would like to give a taste of my reality. The goal is always an art that infects the mind and leaves residues behind. It is my unconditioned urge to search for my own truth in things. Constantly questioning and imagining how things could be.
