I am a project based contemporary artist working mainly on canvas and paper, but also explores new expressions like video art and performance. As a former dancer and musician I see it as natural that music and rhythms are integrated parts of my work. My main project now is called "Found Rhythm" where I - in short - paint music. In an artistic dialogue with international acclaimed DJs I use their house or techno mixes to explore how the body´s spontaneous way of decoding music can be presented in a two dimensional format. Usually it is not a detailed recreation, more often it is the desire to freeze an impression or to conceptualize a certain mood that act as the main expression.
