About
I began my artistic career about 20 years ago while living in Vienna, Austria, where I held two major exhibitions. I find joy in abstract expression, creating depth through materials, contrasts, and textures. I frequently return to metals, plexiglass, foil, photography, and layered translucent materials, and also work with acrylic, oil, and charcoal. Muted tones attract me, their impact heightened through contrast. My interest in design results in an ongoing process having created an armchair in sheet metal and leather, as well as interior objects and lamps in brass wire. Furthermore, I arrange workshops in my artist studio.
The Burning Curve
Inspiration
Details that I see everywhere in the form of transitions, nuances, structures, and shifts. Literature, where the power of words invigorates. Music as well. To a great extent, I find strength and space through a constant intake of influences born of my curiosity and openness to seeing and listening. Then, in silence, I reflect and transform, feel the joy of creation, and begin.
Artistic and practical: courses in sculpture, silversmithing, fine art printmaking and abstract painting.
Theoretical: Mechanical engineering and studies in Interior Design.

Installations. Photography. Painting. Collage. Mixed media. Casting.
I work intuitively and allow the artwork to move in different directions throughout the process. I have shifted from being highly abstract toward a more expressionistic approach.
