Artist Statement:
I collect, actual pieces or abstract images cought in flight.
My studio contains a collection of an endless, endlessly growing number of visible and inivisible bits and pieces.
My work is a treasure hunt among things and stray thoughts that arise and are discarded and then meet again.
Out of it grows something enduring.
