I put different kind of pictures <strong>and</strong> techniques together, traditional <strong>and</strong> new methods. In this work I use pictures clipped from newspapers, photo editing, digital printing <strong>and</strong> quilting. Philosophical societal attitude is a typical aspect in the works. My main aim is to ponder on the relationship between surface <strong>and</strong> depth. The topics that interest me include humanity <strong>and</strong> being human in surrounded time, global situations <strong>and</strong> media reality.
