My work begins with a question.
Beauty and ugliness, humanity and nature, life and death – for me, these are not opposites, but two sides of the same coin.
This picture was inspired by an observation I made in Berlin.
Two children were waiting for the underground. It was no special moment. Yet my gaze lingered on them.
Adults often think about their destination. What time it is. Where they need to go. Whether they’ll be late.
The children seemed different. Even waiting looked like a game to them.
When I observe people, I’m less interested in their stories than in their energy. On that day, I saw no impatience. Rather, curiosity.
That’s why, for me, this picture isn’t just a picture of a underground station. It’s a picture of a view of the world in which everything still seems new.

I work intuitively – often faster than I can think. A colour, a line, a material – and suddenly the work takes a direction I hadn’t planned. That’s exactly when it gets interesting.
My drawings and paintings are full of bodies, faces, creatures – often all at once.
That’s me. Different versions of myself: the gentle one, the violent one, the absurd one. I’m interested in where the boundaries between human and nature, between beautiful and ugly, between life and death actually lie – and whether they really exist. I tend not to think so. Beauty and ugliness, light and dark, joy and pain – for me, these aren’t opposites, but two sides of the same coin. In my work, I don’t try to separate them – but to make them visible together.
If someone looks at my work and thinks, ‘What on earth is that?’ – then I’ve got it right. I enjoy working most when I find myself having to laugh a little at what I’ve just created. Strange, but somehow beautiful – that’s what I want to create.
