I question current norms and values and observe behaviour, ways of dressing, systems, and logic. The communication but also the miscommunication that results from this fascinates me. In my work I use these elements of communication to confuse. I play with them to give shape to a new reality. For example, why do some people dress exclusively in red? Are they aware that they are stealing the show? Is this their normal? I don’t want real answers. I want to ask these questions and dream my own logic onto them.
