Statement

The conscious and subconscious feelings of humanity and large scales of canvas moves and inspires me. I work spontaneously and constantly covering and layering the canvas with oil paint, blending art, culture and the history of humanity into new forms of existing identities.

Sometimes I use the color directly from the tube exploring its pure power and energy, other times using brush, hand and other objects that scratch and mark the painting in an instant moment of time, recording its existence in the history of art and time. In the process I constantly discover new territory of expression, dimension, texture and identity. Every one of my paintings has the beauty, mystery, misery and history of its own - which is the background and instant history of its existence. The history of art and humanity that is cruel to its heritages; the history of culture, wars and civil wars which leave behind contradictions and wounds; sculpt the conflict of existence, which in its case forms a new concept of culture developing divers forms of art.

Why make statments when the heartbeat, the conscious, the subconscious and the existence of the artist creat artwork, which is the existing reality of its creator, and where they blend into one identity. Art itself is a manifesto of its existence.
