Statement
In my work, I try to break through the static, moving towards a kind of fictional renaissance. I question without judging, and without providing answers. In terms of content, I engage with social themes. Observations of global situations, as well as impulses from my immediate surroundings, become motives for my artistic practice. I understand my work as petrified moments. The design moves between reality, fiction, design objects, ambivalence and irritation. The choice of material is closely connected to the respective project. Both radiance and intensity oscillate with the subject matter and the material.
"Aesthetics and meaning are the envelope of my work."
