'High and Away'
90cm x 64.1cm (35.4 x 25.2 inch), from limited edition of 5 plus 2AP

There is a small coastline village, distant and isolated and rarely visited by strangers. A village with strange residents where life is usually predictable and calm. One day a visitor, while trying to get away from the storm, got lost and while in panic, his recognizable spots fell off and got scattered over the village, causing all sorts of problems. The village council decided to find his spots and to organize a reconstruction of pattern, so the tall stranger can get on his way and leave them be.

My works are complex photo collages based on my own photography. I have been collecting photographs for over a decade. It is a long process of combining carefully selected photography fragments and illustrated parts, which are then transferred to computer and digitally painted.

"I am inspired by my surroundings and I see potential in various everyday things and relations, people, nature, architecture, even food. I see them sometimes as fragments of my work. Most of times they stay just that, fragments, and sometimes they become unified into a whole and therefore start to exist as a part of my sceneries.
By using real life photographs and textures I give my work a feel of realism, although the themes are far from being realistic…"
