It's the ephemera Painting

It is the ephemera, which trace a person’s existence by the surface marks that remain, which I find fascinating. My main working method explores a process that could be compared to a type of artistic archaeology: the oil paint is physically layered up and selectively rubbed back to reveal previously worked areas. There is graffiti-ing of contrasting materials and exploration of diffused surfaces. Spontaneity with stencils and spray paint is paired with an in depth use of collage. Often, I feel that it necessary to incorporate found and everyday objects, unmodified into compositions to create a sense of perspective.
