For as long as I can remember, I have been involved with art in all its forms and have also practiced it myself.  

In my works, I often deal with socially relevant, critical, political topics and questions, as well as with time and transience. 

For my pictures, objects, installations, video works, and performances, I often use materials that I find in the trash. This includes pretty much anything that comes into my hands. The supposed junk usually takes on a whole new functionality and offers me an interesting field of tension in which to realize my ideas and concerns in a creative, poetic, and idiosyncratic way. And it saves resources.
