ABOUT THE ARTIST
I was born in 1993 and grew up in Seltisberg,
Baselland. Since I was a kid I loved drawing
and creating things with my hands. Early I've been fascinated with nature, things as fossils and Dinosaurs, comics, fiction and fantasy. Growing up in a christian community, where monsters and magic were kinda tabooed, I got even more interested in darker themes. As teenager I developed a passion for painting Tabletop miniatures, building model-kits and creating sceneries. Today's interests reach from Heavy Rock Music to Skateboard illustrations,
X-Files Episodes to 70s Godzilla Films and Sofubi Toys.
My main medias are illustration, painting and sculpting.
In September 2019 I did the Master degree in Fine Arts at Institut Kunst, HGK Basel. Since then I've been helping out
at the Painting & Sculpture Department at Theater Basel and working several side jobs. Currently I'm involved in some video projects and trying to establishing my self-employment. Contact me for purchase or comissions.
