Artist Statement
In my artistic practice, I engage with systems of perception and visual languages that shape our everyday experience.
I am particularly interested in the myths and (sub)conscious patterns of reception that influence and sustain our societies. These I deconstruct playfully, often with a humorous undertone.
I understand my work as fundamentally architectural:
a reorganization of existing narratives, corporeality, and the ways we receive and interpret visual structures. It is about demythologization—while simultaneously opening up new forms of reconstruction.
At the heart of my process lies a recurring, almost Nietzschean question:
When must I allow for myth and narrative—and when is it necessary to interrogate their mechanisms?
This question not only accompanies the creation of my work; it has itself become a carrier of myth, a narrative, and an action.
Often, my own layered identities serve as a point of departure—identities that navigate the tensions between different cultures, social classes, and languages, shaped by varying systems of thought and practice.
