In my artistic practice I mainly focus on painting, in which I often concentrate on creating fictional worlds that depict the interconnection or blurring of different realities. For me, the image represents a possible dynamic field that can function as a language to express various phenomena, which I usually capture in abstract and/or metaphorical form. My themes are usually related to identity in connection with different realities, they are also based on gaming experiences and include social and environmental issues.
