In my sculptures the playful combining of shapes, textures and colours lead the working process. Thought follows the hand; Idea transforms to its final form while working with the material.
Recently I’ve been focusing on woodsculpting.
Nevertheless I like to play with different materials and every once in a while mix the odd readymade object to my sculptures.
