"We are faced with a multitude of different environmental problems, the causes of which are often very complex and cannot always be clearly classified. There are both visible and invisible factors. Our own feelings play a major role in this. How do we perceive climate change and environmental destruction? Do we see the global effects, how much do they affect our lives and our health? What can solutions look like, who provides good solutions, do I have to limit myself? What does it mean for my everyday behavior? All these questions are often linked to emotions. With my art, I try to make these emotions visible in order to encourage viewers to reflect and promote a dialog about these important topics."
