My work physically and conceptually examines sculpture, deconstructing its general parameters and the necessary tenets of its existence.
What was your first experience with art?
At the end of the street I grew up on was a square with two works in public: A well by the German sculptor Ulrich Rückriem and a text piece by Lawrence Weiner, which I didn’t really understood up to that day.
What is your greatest source of inspiration?
Seeing, feeling and thinking.
What do you need in order to create your work?
A rare interaction of moods: boredom, solitude and clarity.
What are you working on at the moment?
I am polishing a piece of obsidian, in order to find the reflection of my face in it. (I already did that before two times. I gave them both away, what I do regret now).
What work or artist has most recently surprised you?
Even though I am not a big fan of Ettore Sottsass’ idea of design, but the emotional richness and freedom in his artworks and writings really touched me. (Ettore Sottsass, There Is A Planet, 15 Set 2017 – 11 Mar 2018, La Triennale, Milano).
