"The diamond and rhombus carry a wide range of symbolic meanings, depending on the context in which they are used. They do not represent a specific theme or field but have nonetheless appeared throughout human history – from Stone Age cave paintings and Norse mythology to the hashtag in social media. Their meaning varies, whether as an ornament, a symbol of the vulva, a protective eye, or a warning sign. In almost every culture or historical era, this symbol has its own meaning and relevance. Conversely, this also means that the rhombus, through its worldwide application, can be a symbol that unites worlds. Elementary geometric shapes are an important part of my work, although I do not use these elements as a means of establishing order, but rather to alter space and thus redefine spatial perception and recognition."
