My work originates in the subconscious; an idea for a piece comes to me in a fraction of a second. I then browse through my studio looking for a way to express this idea with all the possible means (materials) I have at hand at that moment.
I distill the possibilities, calculating what is possible and what is not. If nothing appears to be ‘possible’ I begin to experiment anyway with the first probable option that first came to my mind when the ‘idea’ appeared. I try out various ways to physically ‘bring to life’ this idea. “Just Doing” is part of my process and by “Doing” the idea turns into something much bigger and something much more interesting then I ever could have imagined in the beginning.
