"In my artistic practice I strive for diversity of approaches and methods, my street works make sense of the context in which they are created - critically or poetically. In the studio I create objects and collages, often using materials found on the street such as advertising banners and false facades. I supplement them with construction fittings and metal frames, reminiscent of the structures used for fixing adverts and referring to their natural environment in the city.
The central themes I have been working on in the last few years are the definition of the place of the individual in urbanised space, as well as the poetic reflection on borders and constraints, whether they be the boundaries of states, natural areas, public spaces or personal territories."
