Statement
I see myself as humanist. My main interest are people and their inner-life; their various emotional and psychological states. The start of my creative journey are photographs I find in fashion magazines and on the internet. It is not important “Who” are subjects of those photos as most of them represent an “image” or an “identity” which fashion magazines sell as a concept.
Through the painting process I isolate the identities of my subjects by revealing their “inner qualities”. It is important that the photos I use allow for a projection of my own personal story. In a way, each portrait then contains an autobiographical thread.
