BIOGRAPHY

Between 1969 and 1996 I worked in different architectural studios with long stays in Italy. I collaborated on paintings, mosaics and objects with Otto Kálin, Ilse Weber, Albert Siegenthaler, Gillian White and Eva Wipf between 1972 and 1987. I lived in Cameroon from 1975 to 1978. From 1996 I have lived in Spain.

Since 1971 I have participated in a number of solo and group exhibitions in Switzerland, Italy, France and Spain. My works can be found in public and private collections in these countries.

STATEMENT

Travelling has always been important to me. Getting to know new places and people who think differently has taken me from one road to another. Some of the most impressive ones have been in North Africa, Cameroon, Italy and since 1996 in Spain.

Intuition and evolution: Each new work emerges from previous pieces. I am interested in showing this process and in showing how dreaming and being awake are just two not very different ways of understanding our existence a little better.

I have always tried to reach simpler solutions, to remove superficialities, to look inwards, to search for the essential.

The whole range of nature, from the smallest particle to the largest galaxy clusters are connected to each other, and we are part of this, tiny grains of dust, like everything around us, and all in continuous transit.
