What moves me

  

This section offers insight into the thinking and experiences behind my work – as an artist and as a person, as a painter and draftsman.

It reflects the inner and outer dimensions of my creative world: intuition and structure, empathy and materiality, abstraction and presence. My understanding of contemporary abstract expressionism does not arise from theory, but from practice. From passion, observation, and a sustained engagement with the human condition.

The following pages provide different perspectives on my work and its context, including background, process, and a detailed conversation on my artistic philosophy.
