His practice of artistic research dates back moments in time that influenced the aesthetics of the world as we perceive it today. The artist builds a collection of facts, found objects, gifts and places where he travelled. Then he re-works these elements through drawing, painting, bronze casting, charcoal strokes, video editing and arranging/re-arranging them in space in order to put these moments or situations in evidence by throwing a new light on them.

“At AiR 351, I´m working through the notion of “Bodenlos” a word in German Language that means lack of ground, used by Vilém Flusser to describe his situation as a Czech-born philosopher, writer and journalist living for a long period in São Paulo (where he became a Brazilian citizen) and later in France. His works were written in many different languages. I do myself find strange being in Portugal, which I feel as Europe that speaks my language, having lived before in London, England and Berlin, Germany. I did also some research and experiments in AI (Artificial Intelligence) as it is mostly know as ´machine learning´. I did input this new language I´m working with into the computing process and got some interesting results. I did also find some resonances in between some architectural elements I saw in a building of a research institute in Lisbon which is part of my investigation into the ontological consequences of contemporary architecture as a language with deep roots in Imperial Japan of the Edo period between 1603 and 1868.”
