Symbiosis

2026

Life is full of ups and downs. After an uprooting year, I find myself in a period of transition where I have returned to my birthplace and the forests of my childhood. From dreams of a career in a big city to dreams of a family life in a small town. In the right environment the organism thrives, in the wrong environment it dies. My life was characterised by individualistic thinking, but for my vitality to increase, a symbiotic partner was needed.

Fragment

2026

A black void is filled with scattered ideas. Slowly the vision grows. Art is being created. Visible and invisible frames set outer and inner limits. Materials must be treated with appropriate techniques. Shapes must be designed. Surfaces must be covered or exposed. So many colours, so many choices. There is a feeling of being fragmented yet whole. Something needs to be changed, something else needs to be removed or added. Pieces fall gradually into place, and the artwork is completed.

Illusion

2026

Is what we experience with our senses real or not? Can we ever know for sure? In today's world, we are inundated with disinformation of various kinds. Propaganda in sneaky disguise, advertising that evokes desire, algorithms that make us scroll further in the borderland between reality and the embellishment thereof. In moments of weakness, it is easy to lose your footing and be swept away by the currents. Truth becomes a lie, a lie becomes truth. Whose truth? We interpret sensory impressions based on our individual knowledge and experiences. The more we know about ourselves, the easier it becomes to distinguish between reality and illusion.

Reflection

2026

Along wide and narrow streets I have hurried forward, with the noise of the city in my ears and the pulse pounding in my body. Although the destination has been defined and almost illuminated by headlights in a familiar environment, I have sometimes stumbled in the dark and ended up in a dead end. However, in the darkness there have been glimmers of light, and after a moment of hesitation, I have continued the journey richer in experience. Just as the city changes over time, I develop myself and look forward to new goals.
