"Happened upon CAGE, while browsing...

A beautiful site. And I am thinking about several of your paintings, which I found once and can't somehow get back to.
Ah, well. I have a question for you, concerning that tension of blackness and motion, against the deep, flat colors (Epitaph, especially, comes to mind).
Mmmmm, it's a feeling, really, not a question. An urge I have, as viewer, lift behind the colors, or the suspended figure, to find out about the blackness pressing from behind. A sense that the whole construct is a mask almost.
A mysterious disguise for something else, which wishes to be lifted, or exposed.
I like your work very much."

"Painting is the main outlet for my emotions. The creative process is closely related to action painting: just open the valve as wide as possible and throw it out rapidly ...

Open your cage and fly...

This results in very dynamical, emotional and moving paintings.
I developed my own personal pictorial language. My works are very direct and therefore sometimes provocative.
For me, painting is a never-ending struggle between Apollo and Dionysus, trying to eliminate reason and let emotions rule, exposing my innerself."
