My main artistic work deals with people with all their facets of the question of existence, the mystery of being human. I also like to be
allowed to do so inspire by myths and fairy tales or ideological or pseudo - religious ideas of the different cultures and epochs of human
history. The strongest driving force for my work are the blatant discrepancy between my dream image of a world worth striving for in
harmony, beauty and innocence and often found reality in the form of violence, alienation and abuse.

According to his own statement, he lives - ” born in the zodiac sign of the fish - since the beginning rather in the dimensions
of dreams, Intuition and ” Anti - Reality ”. In his early childhood, drawing and painting were his favorite pastimes. Traveling
in silence fantasy worlds and fictional places of longing and expressing them visually on paper led to one deep happiness.
