My works (paper cuts, drawings, objects, relief sculptures) have the theme of creating three-dimensional forms, plasticity and three-dimensionality from a two-dimensional surface.
Several elements or layers of grid-like structures and drawings are assembled into collages through sequencing, overlapping and condensing, thus creating a whole, a unity.
All works, whether sculpture or wall piece, have in common that they always work in combination on several levels.
