I describe my artistic practice as conceptual mixed media: my work encompasses various techniques and media, including printmaking and graphics, installations and artist’s books. Photography, language and repurposed materials find their way into my works, as well as digital tools and readymades.

Thematically, I deal with historical and contemporary discourses from the humanities, natural sciences and popular sciences in an attempt to approach what it means to be human and how humans adapt their living space to their own needs. The nucleus of my work is the question of how meaning is constructed: in nature, science, art and society, a process which includes the viewer as active component.

I experiment and investigate different materials, forms of expression and contexts to reveal what role the individual elements play in this process.

I am interested in aspects which represent power relations and the typical organisational patterns they produce: dominance, superimposition, coexistence, blending, displacement, dissolution. I look for suitable translations of these patterns into aesthetic objects which refer to the actual context in an abstract way.

Formative influences from my student days, such as semiotics, structuralism, cognitive science and neurobiology, continue to influence my thinking and working methods to this day.
