"As far as I know there is no artist focusing on the same style like I do. My art reflects the modern digital zeitgeist of today's generation. It is abstract, pixelated, flashy and gaudy.

"I started to play with pixels on computers more than 20 years ago when I was I teenager.

"Back in the 90s I used a computer to start my own internet company at the age of 19. I was surrounded by geeks, hackers and other innovators in the field of information technology. In these days computers were not really part of our lives like today and I was fascinated to create art with these new electronic tools.

"Old school video games (played on computers like Commodore, Atari or consoles like Nintendo) definitely influenced my perception and my style of today.

"The process of creating a new computer and pixel art piece is structured but also chaotic and there are several creative phases and working steps to take. From the empty screen to the final art piece, it can take a few hours up to a few weeks."
