*i do things
*i experiment and research. I'm looking for ways to put into images and words the awkwardness of being alive.
*i draw with paint, like in this series of works on paper inspired by the poem “wild geese“ by Mary Oliver.
* i share my passion for rocks and zines with people. two-days workshop in collaboration with the studio Risofort.
* i invite people to pay attention to their surroundings and fuel their drawing practice. “walking a line“ is a four-days workshop offered online and in-person.
*i make a lot of zines. like a lot. from power ranges to the death of coral reefs and how scientists can hear the birth of neutron stars through gravitational waves. doomed is my newest zine. it’s a poetic story of a black hole with legs searching for something it longs for.
*i illustrated a diversity garden to celebrate all bodies for the L-mag article “schamlos!“.
i organize a weekly drawing club at my studio. drawings, snacks, drinks and a chill vibe. come join!
