Artist statement

My art deals with movement and change. I paint abstract Zen paintings, the awareness is to the present moment and to change as it occurs. I express what I perceive as occurring within at the present moment at the mind-body level. The paintings are abstract, they express the energy that passes within the body at a deeper level than the level of words and images. I paint flow, intense energy, turmoil, opening, expansion, depths, collision, clarity, mist, the search for a new path... and any sensation I perceive at present. The canvases might contain opposing forces and layers of very different expressions. Some paintings are minimalistic.
As I paint mostly on the floor I approach the painting from all directions. The paintings can be seen and hung from whichever direction you love it best.


About myself -

Painting is part of my life both as an expressive channel and as part of my process of awareness, Buddhism being my main source of inspiration. I have lived in South-East Asia for five years.

Exposure to Eastern thought as well as Jungian psychology developed within me...
