I make both paintings and sculptures, and approach them in a
similar way. Guided by intuition, I slowly build works by adding
and subtracting elements until I discover forms that interest
me. During this process, new layers of information don’t always
completely cover previous gestures, and traces of earlier lines
and colors create trails of my exploration. Although my works
are nonobjective, they can function as Rorschach tests, at times
evoking figures, floral bouquets, or rock formations (animal,
vegetable, mineral), depending on the viewer’s inclination. I
strive to create paintings and sculptures that are highly specific
but not overdetermined. They are first and foremost new facts to
be experienced.
