Anyone who has followed my work over the last ten years will probably question my obsession with the earth, the spiritual, magic and religion.
This obsession is a mere reflection of my own life.
The earth that feeds us, the earth we walk on as long as we live, the earth they bury us in once we stop breathing, the earth as first contact point for all primal civilizations.
Where on this earth is of no importance; be it the different ethnical tribes from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego that are buried in their small earth hills with their dogs and personal belongings, or any of the Bantu tribes, like the Yorubas in Africa, or the Aboriginals in Oceania or the Tibetans with their particular view on life and death.
There you find the Cult of the Ancestors that links together all the primitive cultures, you find the personal fascination for primal things, and it is there that you also find the link between my artistic work and my spiritual and religious life.

There you find my life.
