The Art of the Street
I would like to invite you for a tour in the gallery of the street and show you my collection of art assembled during a period of many years. Have a walk with me and discover the hidden treasures in the urban landscape.
The public space is a room where anyone can spread their message to the world. The tracks and traces that people leave behind form a story about the city and the people in it.

My work is also an attempt to show the beauty of the art of the street where different works blend together and create new meanings and how sometimes accidental things form a piece of beautiful art. I hope that my work can shed light on the beautiful aspects of what is often sorted out as vandalism. I want to capture the soul of the city in my pictures and show you what I see. Read the story of the tracks and traces people left behind. Then make your own interpretations.
