Kunstart: Skulptur
Technik: Materialmix
Statement:
The art making process for me is organic, fluid and instinctive.
My work is a narrative sketch which reveals the moment of my feeling or thoughts. It is usually set off by reminiscences which have been hanging on in the corner of my mind and this force impels me to see the relative images in a visual domain.
When the imagery comes to mind, I start to visualize it in various medium. Rather than sketching the concept on paper, I begin to experiment putting together the appropriate elements that I can find in my studio for the project. During this initial stage, the concept becomes clearer, materials evolve, and the sense of the finished vision becomes more prominent. While juxtaposing, incorporating and editing the elements for refinement, I work until the piece reveals the sense of the narrative that I have envisioned.
