STATEMENT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Collage came into my life by chance, but it has followed me ever since. My main motivation is to embrace my creative side and to do things with my hands. Collage is the perfect art form because it is endless, spontaneous, and most importantly–fun. But there is also a healing aspect to the technique, it is one way to truthfully see myself through collage. Usually, I start with spray paint or ink as a surface, then adding hand cut paper images without digital editing. I approach my work with no preconceived notions, staying curious for what will come next, while the creative process drives itself. I do not intend to tell stories, though. It is the viewer that makes his own interpretation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
