My artistic interests center around photography, experimental film works, documentary and feature film. In my practice, all have their say. Merging together they deliver new contexts and sets of recollections, current affairs and social issues. The Stories of certain people and places are of my main concern. I very much rely on people I truly know or love as well as places which allure me with its mood, light or with no apparent reasons. Photographs of men and women, their sexuality, surroundings, temporary locations, rented flats and hardships of life, my relationships with them doesn’t have a punch line. They recollect a time and place we once shared. Intimacy, landscape and migration/translocation transgress in the background with social issues in the foregorund. It all manifest in photographic sereies, video instalations, experimental and documentary films I make.
