My work is presented mainly in an installation form. In my recent work I want to bring an experience of dualism. This dualism presents itself not only in the artwork but also between the object and the viewer. With some of my works I create a situation where the viewer gets an impulse to start to interact and to take part in the installation. Interaction between the installation, space and the viewer becomes an important research field. I try, hereby, to play with materials with different sensibilities and let them make a confrontation with each other.

Generally I make installations where I start from a border within the space. I try to manipulate or move this border. I want to play with the reality, showing a manipulated room, which is only slightly different from the original so that an interesting field of tension arises. In the manipulated space an object or a change can be added, which by itself can also represent something else then what it originally stood for.

The installations always works out of the intention of sketches and drawings.
Spaces, time, transitory and construction sometimes look like details but most of the time they are the starting point for the creation of an image. These are the basic elements I want to use and transform to private, public and exposition spaces and create new possibilities in these spaces.
