In each of my images, I strive to evoke timeless issues of a human being's relation to the world. I depict situations and objects as visual metaphors and symbols for various states of action, thought and feeling. Irony and displacement are means that I have repeatedly used in my paintings and drawings to dislodge the viewer from a complacent idea of the way we think about ordinary objects and places.
