My whole life is art.
Everything I do shall be considered as art.
My notes, statements and artworks are the documentation of this process.
A show in a gallery or on an event is a slice, a segment cut out of the whole, a snapshot of the ongoing process., The continuous documentation of the complete process is this website and it's cousin, which you can bring to the bathroom and read it there - The Shy Stick Insect Hunter Magazine.
And just like a bathroom, a gallery provides you with leisure and attentiveness to indulge.
People come with the intention to experience art which allows me to communicate with them on a deeper level as opposed to competing with daily, stressful distractions. To let people experience art you have to create havens of laughter, thought and tranquility for them.

Here are some of those havens I have created. This list features only major events where my art was the main focus. I participate as well in numerous events as a collaborator of bigger groups which I don't mention here:
