Statement

Abstract acrylic art on TV screens for the audience to smash since 2013. 

Interaction experiments offering collectors the opportunity to actively participate in the artwork creation and destruction process.

Use of electronic devices as media.

Unlimited smashing means: hammering, throwing, crushing by machinery…

Street art interventions.

Fire art. 

Solid conceptual basis with a bold attitude inciting direct confrontation of the personal and society shadow.

Strong call to truly face the side effects of the industrial way of life.

Difficult as it is to look at it, the shadow cannot be just ignored. Meet all the inner feelings you struggle to deny. Let them surface.
