In my master’s thesis, I explored my artistic approach through independent works of art, reference points in art and theory. My primary interest is printmaking, and the interaction of prints, drawings, surfaces and space. Printmaking techniques dictate the process of creation and consideration of the image, which is imprinted on the image carrier through contact with the matrix and can be reproduced. Collage and assemblage are key expressive strategies in my works because they allow me to create works of art by assembling various materials and shapes, that in juxtaposition form a new work of art. At the same time, they enable connection and transition from one medium to another. I try to interweave printmaking with the sculptural principle of work, I complement collages with assemblages. I question the position of printmaking with other ways of creating; how a two-dimensional medium and creation in space will connect. With collages, I explore the relationship between an object and the flat object, reality, and illusion. I create by layering on a two-dimensional support and layering concrete materials in space. In search of appropriate strategies, I want to combine individual forms and art solutions of printmaking, collage and assemblage.
