Long journey Painting

I am inspired by Kandinsky's essays, whose theory of the immaterial aspects in painting influenced me strongly to this day. I communicate in colours. The memories, experiences, inspirations from my journeys are in colours, an universal language easy to comprehend, one which lends itself to various translations, too. For me, colour is an instrument, not a means of expression. My work mirrors my vision on life in an "adventurous" and colourful combination of lines, colour and light contrasts and elementary geometrical forms. Form follows process as I build successive layers of lines to abstract form a rich interplay of colour, shape and rhythm. A sense of space and movement is created. Through the sign-making process and elements of geometry and colour coalesce to hint at a self-organising system. This work finds direction in the immaterial energy underlying our existence – light contains energy which animates particles to form bonds that shape matter and a system of life.
