As long as I can remember I’ve been fascinated by the ocean.When I was about five years old I saw it for the first time and I was overwhelmed. I never imagined anything could be that vast. This feeling never changed. In my paintings there are hardly any traces of human beings. Every now and then I give it a try, but they never make it to the finished work. I don’t know why exactly, but maybe it’s because the painting gets to narrative and that distracts attention from what I want: the illusion of space and light.” |
