I work with airbrush techniques. I love the possibilities it offers, which I might not be able to achieve with other methods. Currently, I work as a nurse in a nursing home. For me, creation has always been intertwined with helping vulnerable people. Daily, I face the physical and emotional vulnerability of people, the myriad symptoms and manifestations of physical and mental decline. The feelings and fears that take hold of the residents deeply affect me as well. Often, I process the accumulated tension from my work by simply painting it out. I frequently draw inspiration from the emotions and events that take hold of me within the walls of the institution. My subject matter is almost always the human being itself, with its own emotional events, feelings, and basic fears such as loneliness, pain, and guilt. My motto: "Let everyone find their own truth, and let everyone meet themselves a little!" I love the organic, biomechanical direction, where the living merges with the non-living, the real with the unreal. I enjoy the surrealist biomechanical trends where they try to blend conscious mental events with the world of the unconscious. My primary goal is not to model my immediate surroundings. I have never strived for precise photorealistic representation. I much prefer to work from within: I deal with the most guarded, fundamental emotions of the human soul. I consider myself an artist who works "from within," who gives from the depths of his soul. I try to uncover a world that is still untouched, which has not yet been imprinted with the categories and "templates" necessary for understanding by the human mind that wants to interpret everything.
