Born in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1975 The flow of life I am fascinated by the patterns in nature and by micro and macrocosm relations. The fractal geometry, where patterns are embedded in each other and recur large and small. The repetitive fractal patterns mean that the geometry of nature’s simple organisms applies to more complex organisms as well, and thus even us humans. When we see this recurring pattern, it can be seen as a kind of abstraction. The repetitive shapes can be a lot of things in nature and what we imagine depend, among other things, on the colors or what we see next to the pattern. I use a reductionist approach in my art in regards to both shape and colors, where I examine the individual components in order to reveal a more complex phenomenon. I find a great source of creativity in applying few components and examining them thoroughly and in new ways. This method provides, among other things, an understanding of how a certain combination of colors can awaken feelings. An isolated element can stimulate aspects of our imagination in ways that a complex picture may not. We perceive unexpected patterns in the picture and perhaps even a connection between art and our perception of the world and our life experience.
