CURRENT MISSION

Working on a movie in collaboration with a director and other artist.

. Besides that i make etchings after i met randomly people on the street, invite them on my balcony or to a parc.

I like to think of myself as an openminded, creative person :).
I enjoy meeting people and getting to know different cultures, languages and places.
