"If I were asked to describe my art in one word, I would say it is “Exploration”. I look for new technical solutions, refined perfect forms. I aspire to new ideas and motives, looking for new sources of inspiration and accepting new challenges. My paintings seek resonance with their viewers, their emotions and impressions, and, fortunately, always find it. My search has been going on for as long as I can remember and I'm not going to stop.
Everything new inspires me: places, encounters, things and impressions. I love traveling and discovering cities and countries. Metropolises with their distinct street culture particularly uplift me. Sometimes the impression is so profound that on my way back to the studio, I already know what kind of artwork I want to create.
My love for change pushes me to constant experiments. I explore different directions and methods. Nature enthuses me and I create abstract landscapes. Recognized masters of pop art inspire me to craft playful and paradoxical paintings in that style. The streets of Berlin, Athens and Istanbul spark a desire to create graffiti-inspired paintings."
