L’origine du Monde (After Courbet) Painting

I am a visual artist whose work explores the psychological and symbolic dimensions of the human experience. Rooted in Jungian archetypes, my practice often centers around the mountain as a metaphor for inner transformation, solitude, and the confrontation with the shadow. Working primarily in oil painting, I also integrate drawing, photography, and video art into my process, creating layered narratives that move between the personal and the collective unconscious. My artistic journey began with strong figurative foundations, later evolving into abstract and symbolic landscapes informed by my background in fine arts and my experience as a guest student at Kunstakademie Münster. I believe that art is a way of returning to what we’ve forgotten — a slow uncovering of inner truths. Each piece I create reflects an inner topography—a dialogue between depth and surface, memory and dream, shadow and light.
