Play betwen abstract and realism
In my creative process, I am guided primarily by trust in something greater than ourselves and by trust in the information I receive through my perception into my field. As an artist, I am most motivated by new beginnings and by moments when everything already feels “perfect.” The blank canvas offers me the opportunity to challenge my inner perfectionist by allowing acrylic inks to create a free and intuitive foundation for the further process. When I feel guided, I add words and symbols that support the energetic essence of the painting. My true love is oil paint, which, with its density, viscosity, and natural pigments, gives my work depth. The transition from abstract, chaotic states into refined composition, harmony, and beauty arises primarily from my subconscious processes and my need for clarity. The visible initial layers within the painting, along with traces of poetry, offer the viewer an insight into the inner world, the intimate space of the soul.
I paint to open space. For you, for me, for all of us to move, to remember and to breathe again what we truly are.

Self-taught artist
- I am a painter who, from an early age, has sought ways to escape this overly dense world and to merge with my surroundings in order to remain accepted. Life, however, has continuously taught me to listen to my highly sensitive, emotional, and perceptive body, and to give it a safe space to express itself in all the colours I carry within me. For me, art is a way for me, as a soul, to express itself through matter. In colours, forms, and imprints of light, I carry information that goes beyond words.
