It is tragic that one can never be a child again. It is equally tragic to always remain a child. I see my work as a story. In this story, however, I don't want to say exactly how it is or how it was. Just how it feels. My work straddles the border between desire and material. I do whatever feels right and slowly from that, a setting, a landscape of materialized feelings and thoughts are painted into being. In Latin, "textere" means "to merge", which refers to both text and textile. "Merge" is a good word for my work. I don't particularly like to write, which is why I like to work with weaving and embroidery. Different paths, events, thoughts, threads and people are woven together and form a context, a story. The various objects are merged into sentences, timing and punchlines.
