He uses this bird’s eye view in his artistic process, as it conveys a sense of peace and dynamism. Experiencing his work from this perspective takes you on a perceptual voyage of discovery, with an added dimension. A twig might suddenly appear to be a ‘tree’, for example; it’s in the details that the magic of his fantasy world lies. His artworks often evoke a feeling of movement and energy, leaving the viewer with a sense of wonder.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style='margin: 0px 0px 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-width: normal; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; font-family: \"Times New Roman\"; font-size-adjust: none; font-kerning: auto; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; font-feature-settings: normal; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-variation-settings: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); min-height: 13.8px;'\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-kerning: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style='margin: 0px 0px 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-width: normal; font-size: 20px; line-height: normal; font-family: \"Times New Roman\"; font-size-adjust: none; font-kerning: auto; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; font-feature-settings: normal; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-variation-settings: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);'\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-kerning: none;\"\u003eTIME\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style='margin: 0px 0px 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-width: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: \"Times New Roman\"; font-size-adjust: none; font-kerning: auto; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-feature-settings: normal; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-variation-settings: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);'\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-kerning: none;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 20px;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 20px; font-kerning: none;\"\u003eHis work develops intuitively, and his challenge as an artist is to find a balance between fantasy and reality. He focuses on recycling, conserving and preserving organic materials, something that is closely linked to his fascination with the concept of changing flora into fauna (for example, the transformation of a bamboo leaf into a living creature). This concept emphasises unity and connection with nature.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style='margin: 0px 0px 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-width: normal; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; font-family: \"Times New Roman\"; font-size-adjust: none; font-kerning: auto; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; font-feature-settings: normal; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-variation-settings: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); min-height: 13.8px;'\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-kerning: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style='margin: 0px 0px 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-width: normal; font-size: 20px; line-height: normal; font-family: \"Times New Roman\"; font-size-adjust: none; font-kerning: auto; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; font-feature-settings: normal; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-variation-settings: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);'\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-kerning: none;\"\u003eAs an artist, he expresses himself in textural paintings on canvas and paintings on museum glass. He uses pure pigments and unique, colourful paints, which he mixes carefully. In his paintings on canvas, he creates a three-dimensional texture by covering the canvas in molten metal, for example, and sand, flowers, shells and other natural finds. In his paintings on museum glass, he uses UV-resistant resin to preserve natural finds, including botanical and maritime specimens, with the aim of them forever. The anti-reflection glass makes it feel as though you could touch the work.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style='margin: 0px 0px 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-width: normal; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal; font-family: \"Times New Roman\"; font-size-adjust: none; font-kerning: auto; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; font-feature-settings: normal; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-variation-settings: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); min-height: 13.8px;'\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-kerning: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style='margin: 0px 0px 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-width: normal; font-size: 20px; line-height: normal; font-family: \"Times New Roman\"; font-size-adjust: none; font-kerning: auto; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-emoji: normal; font-feature-settings: normal; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-variation-settings: normal; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);'\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-kerning: none;\"\u003eIn one particular series of paintings, he incorporates light: you see the light shining through a leaf, revealing its veins and structures.
