"I try to reveal alternative perspectives and artistic interpretations of the world around us. I don't just document through photography, but rather try to add something unexpected to the reality both on the spot and in post processing. I want that my photographs make me dig and uncover something fresh and novel behind all the self-evident observations.

In everyday life it's so easy to get stuck into habits and routine mindset or even routine emotional reactions. I'm always most delighted when I succeed to surprise myself - either emotionally or intellectually. In photography this often means finding a point of view, perspective, detail, mystery or interpretation that I didn't think about at all when first approaching a subject. 

By taking and then making photographs I try to find the essential elements that speak to me in a scene. My aim is to squeeze the reality out of everything unnecessary and focus only to things that matter to me at particular moment. Curiosity is everything!"
