Artist Statement

Inspired by solitude, melancholy & the notion of aliveness I aim to create sensitive, poetic images that lift your spirits

I believe when we surround ourselves with beautiful objects such as paintings, furniture, accessories, lighting and gardens, etc. we make a symbolic statement about our own beauty. These things harmonize our thoughts and lives; and soon our mind starts to clear & brighten. All my paintings have this as their central theme and explore the possibilies of human perfection, physicality, sensuality and birth. Some of the pieces are evocative, some allegorical, others meditative, yet  all posses the same colourful elements that are intriguing and highly captivating to the eye.

The abstract pieces in particular refer to the concept of being ‘light & fluid’, as they assume no boundaries and limitations of the human body; reflecting in this way on the spiritual nature of our being. To bring this about, they are constructed with a great amount of physical movement, musical rythm & visual decadence. At the same time they serve as a metaphor for silence and dynamic as a state of heightened awareness and conscious presence, where one can be in deep stillness, yet simultaneously experiences a sense of exhuberance and universal connectedness. My intention is thus to express these ideas in powerful,  inspirational art that is radiant, elegant and exciting to look at.

I live and work in Brighton, UK.
