He works in sculpture, room installation, land art, painting, drawing. He often uses metal as a material. The technique consists of burning the iron together piece by piece - like in a puzzle - until the shape desired by the artist is created. The head is therefore not a solid core, but a shell, shell or armor. This “martial process” of gradually creating a whole mass from initially two steel plates requires not only vivid imagination but also physical condition. Around sixty kilograms of welding wire were used for the "Head-Pillar Gate" project in Sinsheim.
