Artist Statement:
Most of my work is based on inspiration from modernist architecture and industrial design. I use geometry, colour and form to explore the tension between pure abstraction and pictorial representation.
My latest work is collage on heavy weight paper or panel board. I try to brake up the geometrical form by adding lines, gives the works a softer touch.
Been featured in International print and digital publication, including Aesthetica and Dezeen. My work is held in prominent private collection all over the world, also The Royal Collection,Norway.
