The main subject for my artistic work is mystery, expressed through the wordless exchange between nature, the body and the soul. I mainly work through collage techniques, as I find the process of cutting out, combining and moving about pictures and symbols stimulating in my search after small glimpses of insight into the mystery of human existence. Elements of myth are always present in my work.
My works have been exhibited in the UK, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Norway and Mexico and been published as several art books. I live and work at the edge of a large forest in Trondelag, Norway.

Hovedtemaet i arbeidet mitt er mysteriet, uttrykt gjennom den ordløse samtalen mellom naturen, menneskeligheten og åndeligheten. Jeg arbeider hovedsaklig med collageteknikker. I prosessen med å klippe ut, sette sammen, kombinere og flytte rundt på bilder og symboler leter jeg etter små brokker av innsikt omkring eksistens og skaperverk. Mytiske elementer er alltid til stede i arbeidene mine.
Verkene mine er stilt ut i Storbritannia, Tyskland, Italia, Mexico, Sverige og Norge, og blitt publisert som flere kunstbøker i Norge og Tyskland. Jeg bor og arbeider i et lite hus i skogkanten i Trøndelag.
