In my work I employ a wide range of means of expression: sculpture, painting, installation, video and music. Recently, I have been fascinated with the qualities and mechanisms of memory as well as the role of personal and collective trauma. I am interested in the relationship between ‘play’ and ‘conflict’ and in the way these two different actions can create a feeling of both humour and uncertainty in the work. I adopt familiar material and popular symbols within the technical handling of the work so that the imagery itself can resonate with the viewer, emphasizing the poetic-philosophical content of objects and situations. Through a poetic narrative exploring the fluid nature of the 'real', I want my work to have a metaphorical function of empirical personal memory.
