Biography

"In my eyes it is quite rare that a male artists works with his personal body in this sense (beyond the fetish). Therefore I think that it is an interesting question in terms of analyzing the position of migrants, especially if you compare my auto-aggressive behavior to the one of the female artists since the 70s. I transport this confrontation also in my sculptures and para-architectures. In installation “M” (based on five lockers which four of them content the outfit and equipments of my performed different migrant figures and an empty one, and five large mirror framed by lights bubbles) I construct a sculpture of memories of myself and the others, trans-identity, xenophobia, and Sinophobe."
