Artist's Statement

 
As an artist I allow myself to believe in the unbelievable. At times, I even fool myself on purpose. I seek alternative ways for things to exist. "What if" is often a beginning for a delicious thought pattern, which, acting as a compass, leads me to perfectly lifelike scenarios.
 
I work mainly with photography, collage and conceptual projects. The basis of my artistic process is often the acts of taking apart, reimagining and reconsctructing. I utilise memories, pasts and experieces as my building blocks, which I re-organise into alternative views - a collection of reality's twin sisters.
