Society is a society of that what we create. Social media, metaverse, politicians, convictions. My paintings are based on being human within society today and visualizing my questions about what this might mean to me. Looking for humanity, interpreting parallel realities and technical inventions. I’m inspired by street-art, Asian art , Antony Gormley and Kara Walker. As a technique I used pencil and black oil paint on canvas. But I changed it recently to colour to add a philosophical layer in the search for the dynamics of human life.

HAPPENING NOW:

My next series of paintings will be based on the brilliant philosophy and writings by Samuel Beckett:

“All mankind is us, whether we like it or not.”

“I am an analyzer, trying to leave out as much as I can.”
