Artist Statement:
I use oil paint not as a
classic painting substance but
as a flexibly variable
material: creating paintwelts
and laying them on canvas is
the pragmatic part in the
creative process, by which I
can develop a personal set-up
of the surface of the painting
that compells for tactile
communication between the
viewer and the work on top of
the visual perception.
Treating a painting as an
object, emphasizing the
paint&<8217;s corporeal
manifestation I can
perambulate the possible
relations of the structure,
shape, measures, planar and
spatial proportions.
Monotonous nature of this
technique helps me beeing
absorbed in the work, though I
also strive for reaching a
contemplative effect as well.
Light glinting on gouges makes
these works playful and
sensual....
