………………………………………………………….
My exhibition deals with ethical, emotional and social questions through the language of painting. Serious issues without seriousness, psyches without a poetic nature. My paintings are a mixture of fiction and autobiography. The expressiveness of my paintings illustrates my way of exploring the relationship between the medium of painting, reality and language and how one dissolves the other.
