“Since 1998, I’ve been exploring the notions of the splitting (of perception, narration and psyche) and identity. Following this, I started working with videos in 2004 to question the cinema’s narration and construction. Nowadays, I’m interested into developing further more my fascination for the Japanese culture and its folklore which always has been a continuous inspiration to my work since the beginning.”
