New Work
After a few more bark images in the beginning of 2018 I felt that I was done with birches and bark - at least for now. It was time for experimenting again. A group of small collages, where I used bits of old monotypes, led to the “Piccolo" sculptures. Back to more colorful images and strong black lines. Black lines are also the connection in the images of my latest series “VIIRU” (stroke). The graphic quality in them reminds me of the early silk screen prints I made decades ago. I suppose some elements keep repeating in my work, be they birches, bark, squares or strokes.
