I take inspiration from everything around me really, as cliche as that might sound. Every new place I get to experience, meeting with a person, things I am explained or get to witness with my own eyes, all build up to the knowledge I use in my art. My biggest source of inspiration I would summarize it with “nature and people”. The natural versus the man-made. The relation they have to each other and themselves, and how the consequences of the changes we’re creating and facing affects all of us. I do this mostly by portraying animals, often marine animals, and people, in different surreal underwater environments.
