Artist Statement
With my piece “Nomad Lion”, I want to capture an iconic portrait of the great lion. I choosed a rocky environment to have focus on the lion itself without the distraction of a busy landscape or background. The wind and dark setting adds a level of uncertainty to the image, an uncertainty that is present in all of my work.
I do not manipulate my images to a great extent, I simply enhance certain parts of the image to visually communicate the way I see lions. In this regard my images are representational, yet they may suggest different realities.
