ROOMMATES

Linocut print on paper

Spiders, dragonflies and tree mice,

chickens, foxes, cats and flies.

There are many who call this place "mine". The growing series of linocuts is created on cold winter nights when I feel reminded of the farmers who lived on this farm before me. I cut linoleum the way they sharpened their tools while telling each other stories, of the animals that lived with them.

L'ENCRE ME PARLE

Natural ink on paper

My fascination with inks begins with the originality with which the liquid draws its line. Saturation, density, consistency - every ink is different. But what exactly is ink? Some time ago, I came across an explanation that captivated me:

„Ink can be made from anything that has color“ (Jason Logan). Pigments, water and time, that is the recipe. The rest is up to the cook. In this series, I'm exploring the dynamics of my own inks, filtered or unfiltered, stirred or shaken, liquid or dry.
