I am a visual artist with a background in engineering. My work focuses on drawing. The drawings come from the unconscious; they are poems made of images, written in an automatic way. The mistakes, caused by this automatic process, present me with new ideas and unexpected insights. I believe that during automatic drawing, the unconscious comes in to help us process the things we pass through. I therefore explore contemporary knowledge of psychology and the ideas of Dadaists and Surrealists. Moreover, my work doesn’t need to have a meaning. I am a supporter of not judging, and of letting yourself be astonished simply by the things that occur.
