# Artist Statement
In my pictures I deal with the artistic expression of human sexuality. It can focus on faces, bodies, partners or individuals. The erotic context is sometimes directly recognizable, sometimes not.
I mainly refer to sequences from pornographic films that have emerged from the feminist “good porn” and “sex-positive” movement. I’m looking for emotional, human, intimate, erotic and also provocative moments.
