A physical engagement with painting – in the true sense of the word. A constant struggle where anger coexists and clashes with tenderness, sadness, love and happiness. The music’s loud. The player gets stuck on the same song, and after a while I’ve had enough of it. I’m looking down on the canvas, I’m walking around it, I become one with it. My painting is all focus and fluidity, but also full of contradictions – between the energy of the initial attack and the composure needed for its development, between the passion of feelings and the calm that follows it, between the violence of chaos and the gentleness of love. This is the story of my inner turmoil.
