Winner of the Global Art Awards Tokyo 2021! Evolution and the associated selection and mutation fascinates me. Existence itself, the struggle for life, and adaptation to the environment is the theme I unite in my art. I'm spending a lot of time searching for rare original specimens, bone and skull find as the basis for my sculptures. Then I begin to unite the animal world, imagination, and their enemies in art. With the soul gone, the body becomes just an ornament. These objects are reshaped, transformed, and brought back to life, to regain their place as a symbol of the beauty of nature. In the unusual crossings and expressions, the hybrid creatures get their surreal features. I create my vision of how living beings and nature - develop under different environmental conditions - creating a fascinating, mystical world. Light is one of the essential elements of my art. Therefore I combine elaborate craftsmanship with the highest quality materials. Each sculpture is embellished with up to 40.000 Swarovski crystals which are the recurring theme in all my artwork. The crystals create a unique, intriguing presence for each piece adding the dimension of light as one of the essentials of our being: the material to create matter. It elicits millions of facets in a single beam of light. Nowhere is beauty better set in the scene than in nature. I love the aesthetics of nature and playing with light to highlight its beauty, its complexity, and finding beauty in the darkness and the shadows. I like the notion of making the unseen, seen. With my sculptures I’ve been experimenting with the patterns and textures found within the natural world, combining scale and context to create new species that, while being wholly grounded in reality, feel other-worldly.
