About this user

I am an artist resident in the UK, working on a variety of projects. People always hope for a YES when they ask me: "Do you paint", as you see: I roll dungballs, wear wings made from lead, construct cardboard staircase mazes that lead to nowhere and serve no practical function.. I have a lot of questions and as I can't find answers I try on different routes to understand things.

Among other things: I produce dysfunctional objects, engage in quixotic journeys and sisyphean struggles, push the body to it's limits and test my endurance and sometimes also my audience's.

Through all this I question humans, what they do, how individuals and societies feel and I try to bring these thoughts and conversations into a physical realm, make things physical with the Art Projects that I produce. I like humor but don't always use it. I like my audience although at times I don't like people. The yes-no-yes-no towards people feeds into my work and I try and be honest.

I am active nationwide and am mobile internationally.
