Encounters in nature. Female figures, limbs, bodies and fantastic beings arise in passing from roots, embankments, tree trunks or carcasses, old pipes and garbage. In conjunction with personal moods and absorbed atmospheric impressions find in the image to its own formal language. In many drawings I integrate into the image motif also old, sometimes colored, faded paper or newsprint. By repeated abrasion I show the viewer a past, which are similar to the drawings on walls of old buildings or caves. On this 'weathered underground' I apply with ink and art pen also drawings from the observations of nature, human and animal world. These are either minimally or partially sanded off again, and only a 'framework' or some contours remain. On this basis, the motif is gradually completed to the finished picture.
