My work is intended to take the viewer away from the world of thought. Most of the time it is process oriented, 
sometimes containing elements from dreams. It reveals universal forms, which are innately present in every 
human being. I feel the need to show these elements in order to bring them about. They are often the product 
of a struggle against society’s moral dissipation, a personal disenchantment with the material world around me.

Art, being a response to society, has the potential to serve as its mirror, and at the same time, point towards 
what is behind it. My work projects a desire for equilibrium with the physical world and hopefully, depending on 
one’s willingness and aptitude to be guided by their sensations, takes one away from what is present in their 
short-term memories, beyond reason and the frustrations that come from our desire to become independent of 
each other.
