The relationship between humans and nature has always been ambiguous, with nature seen as both a provider and an enemy. The climate and our way of life are changing nature and its ecosystems, nature is under pressure. This transformation fascinates me, without being critical I observe these changes. They make me curious and are a source of inspiration for my work. In abstract, suggestive and dynamically paintings, I try to capture the change and alienation of nature without interfering with the viewer's interpretation.
