The research of psychic and social identity - of my own one and of the ones who are perceived as "alien" - and its inscription on the bodies and objects, that's the material of my art work. This is my way of field-research. In opposite to the scientific world with its pressure for the objective proof - the art context offers to me the open experimental field; that's what I need in order to communicate with others: to include, to address, to challenge all levels of human perception. 

Hereby, single works are like completed research projects in themselves. According to that, the research topics, the used material and media, the esthetical shapes as well as the form of presentation are variable. 

Language - a substantial resource of the production and reproduction of cultural contexts - plays a special role for me: by becoming the research material itself, serving as the upholder material, or - in puns - producing multi-layered meanings. 

In earlier works the role of the perfect and beautiful surface was visual seduction. Because behind the surface waited the anger, the pain, the fear and the aggression; this role of the surface l'm changing. Today, the surface plays a different role in my works: Beauty and harmony are now used to create space for constructive communication and healing. At the same time l' m interested in transforming ironic aspects into humorous ones.
