作为一位观念和视觉艺术家,我的作品突出展现了动作所留下的痕迹以及令人着迷的重复。

As a conceptual and visual artist, my work typically features traces of gesture and obsessive repetition.

初看之下,它们似乎并无关联——涂有人造黄油的墙壁,18928块手工粘土饼干,实验视频——而每一个项目都是上一个的延续,并预示着之后的实验。

Although they may at first glance look unrelated—walls smeared with margarine to 18,928 handmade clay cookies to experimental video—each project is a continuation of the last and informs future experimentation.

这组绘画作品中,代表日期的数字在沉思、直观、自动的绘图过程中不断重复出现。在反思时间流逝的同时,也参照了艺术家河原温、罗曼·欧帕卡,素人艺术家艾玛·豪克、芭芭拉·萨克菲尔和乌尼卡·祖恩的作品。

In this group of drawings, the numerals representing the date repeat throughout a meditative, intuitive, automatic drawing process. While reflecting on the passing of time, they also reference the work of artists such as On Kawara and Roman Opalka, along with outsider artists like Emma Hauck, Barbara Suckfuell, and Utica Zurn.
