Abstract
-
The inspirations for my pictures are the places where the urban environment and nature meet, intersect and interact. I am particularly interested in the parallels that human life shares with flora and fauna and with natural phenomena. This is how deep sea creatures, tropical plants in greenhouses, birds, volcanic dust clouds or bumblebees become the characters of my images.
My starting point is my own personal experience, which touches on themes arising out of general life situations, such as transience, absence, change and permanence, society, generational change, and the personal and impersonal.
My paintings relate to poetry, and I use associations, visual metaphors and analogies, and sensual details. A subtle point of contact can rewrite an image’s sphere of interpretation.
