—–

As with the Surrealists, especially Jean Arp, my work method leave much room for “fluke”
or otherwise – accident.
Furthermore, this approach consistently allows me to challenge my intuition and the subconscious.

May it be part to the subconscious and may reveal something of the psyche which would otherwise be repressed. Therefore any random action, words which becomes an abstract lines and surprising effects also stimulates my imagination, which is occupied with trying to find new aesthetic solutions.

My energy is transferred onto the surface and lines, while the imagery is streamed from my subconscious.
It comes with momentum.
