Statement

Woman in the shower (1) and Girl on the edge of the bed (2) are part of a series of atmospheric pieces where body takes over space creating mystical environments. It explores the interaction of body and space as well as the relationship of the viewer to the art piece. Concepts of nudity, rawness and exposure of one’s self are also very prominent.
