The works from the cycle "Perspectives" are based on a space shown in perspective, which is shortened in its depth or the depth is simulated by distortion, as is also used in theater.
Depending on the selected position of the "frame," each rotated by 90°, the perspective of the viewer in space changes. His point of view is higher or lower, further to the right or further to the left.
This effect imaginarily changes the position of the viewer in the room, but also the size relationship between the room and the viewer and thus the meaning and relationship of both to each other.

"The back wall can be designed according to the owner's wishes, to have memories more present, to make wishes or ideas visible. With a mirror on the back wall, I project the viewer and their surroundings into the room once again."
