My pictures show both symbolist and surreal tendencies. The symbolist pictures
represent problems of
our existence such as proximity and distance in human relations, love, longing,
isolation and
aggression, among other things. Just as in mime and modern dance, the subjects
express an idea or a
mood through gestures and movement. This gives a symbolic character to parts of
the picture. My
landscape pictures can also be interpreted metaphorically, as expressions of mental
moods.
The surrealist work developed by chance from the structure of a picture (as for
instance the Surrealists did through decalcomania - a method which was used for example by
Max Ernst
already in the 20s). The encoded meaning of the picture can reflect mental
experiences. These seem like messages from the personal or collective subconscious. Sometimes this
makes the pictures ambiguous. Their interpretation depends on the associations of the observer. The
title of the picture may provide an added stimulus.
My painting techniques (usually oil on canvas) are mostly based on the late-medieval layer painting, which
among other things has been developed from the innovative approaches towards the handling and
manipulating of oil paint by Jan van Eyck. There several transparent oil layers are painted
one above the other, so that the often unusual colours of my pictures develop a special depth and luminosity.
