Brief
Contact
"With a background in science, the tension between those two sides of me (the artistic and the scientific) triggered most of my art work in recent years. Initially, I was making art on art (exploring questions like What is art? and How does art world work?). More recently, I explored the discrepancies between great scientific ideas and our everyday life. Ultimately, I am interested in how things work (or the truth, whatever that is)."
