Handwriting and drawing were my first fields of research, that came naturally. The line is my favorite. words matter. Rhythm. At some point, working on my sign system was the most exciting thing I could imagine. I feed it from the reduction of what is perceived and use it to create—mostly abstract—notations. Art is a reaction to the world, an exploration and a search for explanations. I'm probably also trying to create an image, something inexplicable at the same time, something new that is different from me. I'm trying to tell something, or at least to give a beginning to stories. The core of my work lies in the play of opposites and connectedness. I like to work with various pencils, (oil pastel) crayons and inks, preferably on surfaces that give me some resistance, such as cardboard and wood.
