Open Book

me. books
As a rule, my artwork has always started with an idea or a memory. The point of departure usually is a feeling or a kind of mood that I would like to see come to the fore and that I hope will be transferred to the viewer. I see my work as a way of dealing with the melancholy and absurdity of human existence. The themes are the story of human, the perception of inside and outside, time and memory, the detachment from unnecessary and the problematic relationship with each other in a technology-dominated environment.
