I focus on photography, not as we know it in the usual sense, that is a faithful record of reality. I am interested in photography rather from a chemical point of view - photography as drawing with light, as a light trail, reaction. I am interested in the materiality of the photographic medium, the light-sensitive layer, process, photography as a trace, experiment, latent image, aura or interventions, processes, and reactions. I deal with the relationship between existence and experiment or how an abstract image affects us and what happens during the creation process. I am interested in photography as a reaction to light. Photography is a dialogue between material and light. I take the photosensitive paper out of the protective packaging and let it react. The color tonality changes depending on the type of paper and the amount of light acting on it. I also expose the light-sensitive paper to the light from the scanner and create a fixed digital version at the same time. I combine two contradictory actions - initiating and stopping movement. Certain parts of the image are chemically developed and fixed, and certain parts are constantly changing. The photographic images are alive and still changing.
