My artistic work is a form of social research that intervenes very subtly in the status quo.

One recurring ingredient is the encounter with a previously unknown other.

To me, the most interesting part about making art is that its process often facilitates an encounter with that which I cannot possibly expect. So it is this process is what my art is about, and I try to strip away all the nonessential fluff around it. Or I just work with the fluff, literally, in the form of packaging and masks.

Either way, I am interested in the subtle transformations which may happen in the exchange of perspectives and views — if and when they are real, true, sincere, honest. Direct. Not filtered, not deflected and disturbed.

My work is an ongoing dance with the unknown, the not-yet, and sometimes, also with the unknowable, I guess. None of these most essential elements of my work are exposable. You may enter the experience, if you are open for it. It takes time and empathy.

What becomes visible immediately is the research, the meandering search movements of my explorations, and within them, the desire for a union of opposites.
