Meeting Finland Again.
My stay in Finland changed my work a lot. The Finnish nature has found his base in my work.

The futility of the human being as you can experience in rural Finland follows its what to the mining areas. They collaborate in lines and organic forms. The color give the works the finishing touch.

I'm very exciting to work in Finland again. The Finnish nature isn’t unknown anymore, but what will this renewal give for feeling. Is the Finnish nature the same as I had in mind?

I want to develop my work further in Finland. This stay will give a lot of possibilities to experiment in a different way. At the end of my stay I’m roused to look back but also to see what kind of experience will stay in my work.
