In my art I intend to question boundaries, question underlying mechanisms of societal and system structures that influence the way we become. In this landscape of more or less forcing normativity I try to unframe and redefine the ways of relating ourselves to the world. Expressing the embodiment of the here and now; embracing the soft forces. In my work I focus on the body, the focal point of being, of our presence and identity.
In making art I use various media. This may be in a mixed and layered manner e.g. in an installation. I sometimes work interdisciplinary integrating movement, word, sound.
I have a special passion for dance and movement, in which I both feel concentration and freedom. Moving means experiencing the body in relation to space and time. In somatic work and instant composition I explore reading and articulation. It feels enriching and gives an additional dimension to the visual art work I make.
