ARTIST STATEMENT

In my artistic work, it is important to get to know a variety of environments. I work
with the topic of scale and size and their relationships with observers, users, and
also the environment that surrounds them. I am searching for interactions between
objects, installation and spectators. I try to set up the description of the borders of
interdisciplinary. Micro and macro world, man as the centre and man as a part of the
surroundings. Interdisciplinarity from which a new authentic work arises is essential
for me. It is the intersection of art work and architectural elements designed for private
as well as public spaces.
I worked with the theme of material and emotional value of the object. Often I have
appropriated elements of daily use which I reworked in precious materials and thereby
alter their character, while watching the newly acquired relationship between
object and user.
