Inlighter Sculpture

What inspires me are my many travels, the people I meet, the pictures I take, and the ideas that come in to my mind while having a break. In my work I am very much driven by an intense craving for spirituality. Nevertheless, I struggles with the many taboos, rules and regulations that the various religions impose on their followers. I trie to expose these taboos in my work in a light-hearted way. At the same time, I don't want to come across as offensive or judgmental. Humour is the best remedy against rigidity. The Life of Brian versus the Ten Commandments. Another subject is balance, which may or may not be faltering. It is the struggle that we as humans go through to bring life to a good conclusion. This is a tough process of constant trial and error and trying to keep going. These days the global climate problems effect me a lot. This starts to shine true in my work. The way we treat our most precious Mother earth is so striking. For that reason I started making Bronze trees and half-human half-trees so that future generations will be able to know how trees looked like and even trick them that we once where one.
