For me, it's really important that the experience of art is always something that is able to provoke strong emotion, an emotion that you feel in your heart or your stomach, but also that challenges the brain at the same time. It's an experience - physical and intellectual.

I want to experiment with new techniques and become a "traditional baroque artist."

Whether I'm at home and researching online or whether I'm in the studio just drawing, I think I'm more interested in practical research - discussing with other people, trying to find the exact formula of putting things on the canvas, what is the consistency of paint that works best.

I think art must be the place where you are protected from the logic of the outside world.

The political cartoon, in a way, is one of the highest forms of expression about our times. I don't believe in dramatic statements when it comes to political critique. It doesn't communicate in a way that's subversive enough.

Art has to maintain as large a space for interpretation as possible, and to protect itself from being too narrow.

Is it possible to be a revolutionary and like flowers?
