Artist's statement
I had been fascinated with the cosmos and the dilemma of life and death since childhood.I feel I am on a journey to eternity, to the unknown and try to convey what I see on my way in my paintings. My work has a three dimensional feel with a touch of the fourth dimension; time! I am very experimental in my work and use acrylic and epoxy on canvas together with exciting and untried material. I love playing with fibre, texture and grain.
