Artist Statement
With the Covid-19 crisis, things that we have assumed to be certain, suddenly no longer apply. My latest body of work emerged from the confrontation with feelings such as insecurity, uncertainty, confusion, powerlessness - but also longing and hope. I worked with several zoom settings or camera positions in one long exposure to express the paradox that the world (has) changed incredibly fast, while at the same time everything seems to sort of standing still.
