In the artist talk I will focus on the process and ideas behind the work ‘Monument for the Future‘ and the origin of ideas and their development throughout the proces and its place within the evolution of my works. The talk will  focus on my believe as an artist of the power to create and  I will reflect on my practice.

I am deeply fascinated by materials—not only for their physical properties, but for the histories, geographies, and memories they often reference. Much of my practice begins in ruins, among discarded or forgotten remnants of industry, where I search for traces of life hidden within decay. I see my work as standing at the threshold between sculpture and architecture, where form becomes both structure and story.

The physical act of making—the weight of a hammer, the resistance of stone, the malleability of copper—anchors me in a process where labor itself becomes meaning. Ultimately, my practice is about transformation—how we can create new life from what has been broken, and how art can exist in the space between past and  future.

In this talk I we will discuss several of my projects, there will be time for an open dialog toward the end of my presentation, as I am curious of your thoughts.
