The Baltic Sea flint stones on the beaches of the island of Fehmarn have a magical attraction for me. Their texture, colors, structures, and patterns fascinate me with their diversity and uniqueness. The flint stones often exhibit striped patterns, which are the result of the rhythmic precipitation of dust-fine, dark minerals… during the rock formation process. Exploring them with all of my senses creates a connection to their age, which is estimated at 80 million years.
Flintstone is considered a stone of determination and inner strength. It can help you pursue goals with focus and promotes mental clarity. Especially in times of change, it can strengthen courage and perseverance.

My artistic work always focuses on the intermedial production processes with their investigations, trials, errors, and repetitions—detached from a concrete result. Many small decisions regarding materials, tools, and their application enable transformations that open up a space for experience and understanding that has become essential to me. This space allows me to be mindful and clear in the here and now, to feel the interplay of control and letting go, and to experience an inner form of freedom. The passage of time becomes visible in the artwork through the traces of the individual process steps and can tell very personal stories. My love for the Baltic Sea led me to marine conservation, which I address and support in my artistic work. My aim is to provide a sensory connection to the necessary measures for a protective relationship with the Baltic Sea.
