when i wake from a dream i still can remember, it is like a game to relate elements from this dream to stimuli i have caught during my time awake. the seeded strawberry in my dream relates to the freckles on the hands of the person i sat in front of at a party the evening before. while creating i experience this association process the other way around. it is like a game to catch stimuli, to bring them together, and release them transformed. symbolically and in material. in my work i combine this free and flowy process with a steady and controlled hand.
