"In the depths of the forest the terrain provides a variety of encounters. Every step leads to a new confrontation and seductive surfaces overwhelm the senses. Working on site, in contact with nature, I try to absorb this experience by executing small studies. These observations are then gathered together and translated into fictive landscapes within my studio. From the many sites and sources an amalgamation of the landscape is created. Working from observation allows me to use the nuances of observed light while simultaneously developing the paintings in a more improvisational way. Much like the course of a myth, it has roots in reality, and over time it evolves and adapts, adding more complex layers."
