As a contemporary artist, I respond to a life of fragmented experiences, a host of apparently casual encounters with the known and unknown.
 
The traces of human activity and mental forces collide in a myriad of invisible arrangements.
 
A painting is filtration of life events, sometimes traumatic, sometimes euphoric. The artistic act is sometimes an out-of-body experience, a theatre of operation with actors who are invited and invaders who are accidental.
