"The subjects of my paintings range among the sarcophagus at Chernobyl, abandoned East German housing, unused factories and industrial architecture, radioactive landscapes, self portraits, and lost soldiers. I paint these places and events because I find something beautiful and difficult about them (like half-forgotten memories). I am interested in how the image can be transformed through the act of painting."
