"Art thrives on imagination and the courage to create. It opens up new perspectives, breaks with the familiar, and invites us to rediscover the world."

As a self-taught artist, I work in the field of abstract painting. In my work, I primarily use acrylic paints on canvas and experiment with self-made squeegees, spatulas, brushes, and other tools.
My works are usually created intuitively and through a process, often in series of individual pieces that are linked together by color moods and structures.
For me, painting is a free, intuitive process that follows no rules. The image emerges from the process itself, not from a plan. What counts is the energy, the movement, the risk. Ideally, this energy and openness are transferred to the artwork itself – and to the viewer.
