No Body

No Body is an art series exploring presence beyond the physical. It considers what remains when the body of a loved one is not near – the unseen threads, the energy, and the connection that persists beyond touch and sight. The works reflect on absence, memory, and the intangible ways we are bound to those who matter.

It’s Okay

12 | 2025

It’s Okay is an art series about acceptance – the small, everyday kind.
It looks at the things that can’t be changed, the parts of life that feel slightly off or uncomfortable. Sometimes they show their bright side, sometimes their heavy side, and sometimes they shift when seen from a different angle. Being with them isn’t always easy, but within a wider perspective, it becomes okay.

The series has a more dimensional, almost sculptural approach. It aims to create the feeling of a real-life scene – both while making the work and while viewing it – so each piece can be experienced as a moment, as if stepping into a space rather than looking at a flat image. Some works are raw, shaped by unfiltered and intense states. The aim isn’t always to create something “beautiful,” but to capture the energy, the immediacy, and the truth of a moment as it appears.

Much of the intensity loses its weight once it is moved onto paper. When something leaves the mind and takes form, it becomes visible, holdable, and easier to release. When returning to the works later, the original impulse no longer needs to be explained. They simply feel like places for releasing energy – spaces to experience and let go.

Form follows Thought

12 | 2025

Form follows Thought is an art series exploring how inner beliefs shape reality. It observes how ideas and energies that are truly held begin to take form beneath the surface. Subtle currents accumulate, gain weight, and gradually become tangible. The artworks trace this quiet process – the transformation from unseen intention to something visible and material.

Turning back to the analog and the enduring, the practice is rooted in simplicity and naïveté.

Ink, paper, and pigments that have existed for centuries and will continue to endure. More questions than answers shape the work, alongside an ongoing search for something like a life-formula to hold onto. Art becomes the way without a prescribed path – a space without direction to follow, without ideology to inherit. Art is free.

Architecture has long been a source of fascination. Paper becomes a space to enter and construct – the hidden studio of the mind, a quiet laboratory for experimentation. Every mark acts as a subtle cause, a gesture that allows form to emerge through gravity, chance, and the inherent behavior of the materials themselves.

What shapes the practice:
– A background in graphic design: translating thought into simple forms and structures, illustrated thinking.
– A devotion to simple, enduring materials: ink, water, natural pigments, paper.
– Working with the hands as a counter-movement to screens and accelerated concepts.
– Allowing forms to arise through natural forces rather than control.
– Creating as a meditative and intuitive practice: order through marks, quiet through repetition.
