I am searching for my own artistic language. In this process, it is crucial for me to strike a balance between reality and the subconscious, and to find the right state of things through image, movement, color, and material.
I let go of control over the process, and perhaps this is what gets the job done. When I begin working on a new idea, I rarely have a distinct structure in mind, and it is not quite clear what the final result will be. The only thing I can structure is myself; I can tune myself as an instrument: organize my studio practice, choose the right material, and work with it.
