Artist Statement:
ARTIST STATEMENT
Love…Hatred…Jealousy…Desperatio
n…Joy…Passion…
I paint the human soul as it
experiences both grief and
joy. The human soul is an
enormous secret world that
becomes visible for the artist
through perceiving and
painting the essence of
visible objects. I interpret
human emotions by juxtaposing
colours of my subjects. When
in desperation I may see red
as black, yellow as grey, or
blue as brown. Objects are
distorted, sugar is bitter,
and peaches are tasteless. I
paint grief turning to joy,
for example, by showing an
open red and black mouth
screaming out white pearls.
To me art is a confession. All
of my soul’s emotions are in
my heart and blood – they move
to my body’s rhythm - and I
choose subjects as external
interpretations of those
feelings. I must be as close
to my subjects as possible; so
close that I can eat them or
get inside them and thus
almost every all my work is
done as a close-up. I arrange
canvases in awkward sets in
order to give the feeling of
my subjects in motion.
