ARTIST
STATEMENT
"My aim is to achieve a balance and harmony between contrasting elements such as light and dark, warm and cool, sharp and smooth edges. I want the viewer to find my work just as interesting as I find the process of producing it. I do not plan my work in great detail, but instead approach it as a spontaneous project and a challenge to be investigated, experienced and enjoyed."
