Artist's Statement
Advertising images of magazines and mail order catalogues are the source of my drawings, installations and animation movies. I transfer the images of figures. Through my extensive layering process, the figures lose their individual characteristics and become part of a mass, a zigzagging chaos of lines. I am interested in the tension between the highly representational and readable starting point - advertisements, which have to get a message across as clearly as possible - and the abstracted, illegible result of the layering process.
