I am a multimedia artist who collects images and movements that fascinate me in some way. I take the images out of their original context, paint them in my own style, apply some manipulation, and place them as stills or animations in an imaginary setting. I shift and play with the images until they form the perfect composition for me. In this way, I create a fictional reality built from elements of the real world.

The images I collect come from everyday life: actions so normal that they barely catch anyone's attention. A snail, a crayfish, or a piece of litter, anything that captures my attention. My work is figurative, and the concepts are easy to understand, but if you look closely, I surprise you with subtle details you might have missed at first glance.

When I have an idea, I search for the movements I need and film these actions. I study the videos meticulously to select the scenes I need to tell my story. Then I paint, frame by frame, what I see and photograph these images. Later, I edit the photos on the computer and create animations from them, which I combine into a cohesive whole. This is how I build my narrative.

Initially, I focused mainly on painting, preferably on large canvases. I wanted to give my work an extra dimension and started experimenting with film and stop-motion techniques, which eventually led me to animation. Although I now paint on a smaller scale than before, my  work is created to be projected on  large surfaces.

It remains magical to see how all these still images come together to form movement that continues to drive my artistic practice.
