"I am committed to abstraction. The work of Marc Rothko, Willem De Kooning and Paul Klee had a strong impact on my artistic education.
I don’t try to depict reality, I rely on colour, contrast and texture to convey my feelings and make things visible. My canvases are a mix of purely formal elements and potential narrative. Images originate in fragments of personal and cultural history, in responses to travel, recollection of journeys. Traces of places once visited, of colours seen evolve as an introspective diary of history, times and places."
