When I select a space to work, whether it be in nature or an urban landscape, I try to find some immediate relation to its next biggest border. For example, this could be a building, a tree, water or something else. Around this border I create my own space. If there is not such a relation point I immediately try to create my own space and create a relationship with the spiritual, historical and/or geological views. My whole interest is to create my own very personal space but this space is always in connection to one of the above conditions.
At first I try to inform myself about the specific situation of people, the habitat and the wider landscape. Each landscape can tell us about the very special and sensible condition of the place. Next I choose my materials which varies according to my current artist statement. Material’s are important because they can capture one’s innermost thoughts. Finally, I put my eyes in my finger caps and being working on the piece.
