Sculptor, especially in the field of aerospace -
My dialogue with space is driven by the doubt about existing forms and the search for a broader perspective: to fall out and look differently. Central themes are world(s) space and the existential question of the place of humans in "spaceship earth". Our actions, our being human, the waste and the traces we leave behind. The chosen form are temporary or often lightweight sculptures made of materials collected and reused from (our own) daily use, the street or construction sites. Among the sculptural heroes are plants and microorganisms, discarded monuments, street furniture or astronauts.
How will we have lived? Who will we have been?
