About the artwork Trying to make peace with myself
The white flag as a symbol of peace. How much of your own blood and that of others depend on it? Does time clean all our flags? It is up to the viewer to ask these questions.

"My figures resemble letters. Several letters make a word, words form sentences and sentences weave a story. If you were to look at all my paintings side by side, they would make a narrative about human existence."
