Originally trained in restoration and sculpture, the artist found his own path in contemporary painting. He was most influenced by Michelangelo, Jacopo Pontormo, Lucian Freud, Gerhard Richter and Jenny Saville. His painting style is mainly expressionist and realistic. He is deliberately opposed to posthuman and AI influences and is concerned with the authenticity of the human being. He focuses on what only the human eye and the human heart can see, the personal atmosphere of the eternal man.
"I wish nothing more than to be captivated by the unspeakable and the incomprehensible. How can the form of created man and his personal "speech" be understood or put into words? One can only delight in it and feel the inner euphoric compulsion to want to grasp and feel the pleasure of his creation and his being created."
