Paintings
Series of paintings that reference artifacts from all around the world. Elements of them are combined into new objects that cannot be placed in a specific cultural context.
The artworks hint at toys, vessels, statues, spiritual items and architecture to create scenes that intentionally blur their origin and purpose.
