Artistic Statementthe tactile, colourful qualities of his work are representative of paintings which often dominate the viewers perception. his distinct figurative and diagrammatic style picks up often unvoiced tensions, fears, as well as hopes of modern societies. he is concerned with queer as a strategy for radical openness while being unequivocally centred in oneself. queer form is an open mesh of fluid identities, boundless desire, eerily beautiful intimacy and sacred presence.
