The Artist as Shaman 2014

My work is the autobiographical visual language of my subconscious. A fleeting moment in time - the midpoint between taking information in, processing it and creating new knowledge. 

The work is directly tied to my emotions and does not in any way try to be objective. It is in fact a celebration of subjective truth. It explores ideas around external worlds, to produce new symbols and contribute to the collective conscious.

//eerlik oomblik// (//honest moment//) 2014

my work is an autobiographical visual depiction of my subconscious. it does not try to represent a truth and the viewer should not expect to find any truth in it.

it is rather a fleeting moment in time, the mid-point between taking information in, processing it and producing new knowledge. 

the work is directly tied to my emotions and does not in any way try to be objective. it is in fact a celebration of subjective thought.
