I consider paintings to be objects, not pictures.
The work is specific in its conception and its physical presence
yet it does not pose any conditions on viewers.
When liquid white meets black both interact and find their place
on the surface.
This interaction of opposites becomes even more intricate when variables
such as gloss, semi-gloss and matt paints are introduced.
I am interested in gestures of non-interference, initiatives that
determine their own inherent results.
Painting that is located between intentional activities and unintentional
occurrences.
Processes that create their own dynamics, where works are not made
but occur as the result of factors that are beyond my control.
I want to be surprised by my paintings.
