Artist’s statement.
I was born into graffiti but always felt a little bit different. I liked the chaos and the destruction, but still, it was just a fashion.
I searched for ways to create images.
I went to art school and got kicked out because i wouldn’t play the game.
I made high-end digital special effects and won a MTV spaceman.
I made commercials to brain wash people who watch TV.
I traveled the world then moved to Berlin to live a better life.
I sold the spaceman on ebay to pay for some paint.
Im looking for the ultimate expressive action through image making. Trying to put everything, all knowledge, all emotions, all fears into one action, one brush stroke.
Im still searching.
