• Unfolded

   I make drawings to escape from reality. Each pencil stroke erases daily life and creates a new world. Dragons, spiders and birds appear and talk to me. They keep me company during the entire process. Their appearance calms me down. They have chosen me.
  

  I explore the medium of drawing in different ways. Paper sheets printed and rolled become columns or tree trunks. The viewer can wander around the drawings, as if walking in a printed forest. In another work, I use a polyhedron with diamond facets and these unfold from an empty shape within the drawing. The sculptural aspect reminds me of an object brought back from an uncanny world where the entropy creates ruins shaped like a diamond.

  In the manner of Rorschach stains, I fold and unfold forms and images, so that the viewer can project their own world. My drawing are inspired by English landscape painting of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. These landscapes of another time operate like a portal through which I am drawn on a mindful journey.
