"In my pictures, I draw the borderlands between the familiar and the unknown, magical realism. In the themes of my images I weave together the beauty of nature and the dangers lurking there. In my pictures, I also deal with our ancestors, who have turned into mythical figures, and appear as reflections or flashes in the corner of the eye. Deep in the forest is a spring that mirrors space, reflecting our place in the cosmos. My themes mix easily and consciously with each other, and the pictures are a continuum of my previous works.

I try to show the diversity of this technique and that good technical skill is important in the final result of the image. I make my works using the multi-colour metal graphics method, where the image is etched on 2-3 copper plates, from which it is printed on paper. The final work is created when several copper plates are printed on top of one paper. I do all my metal graphics prints myself, as this is an important part of the creation process, so there is a little variation in each print. The prints are numbered and T.PLá marked. I mark my prints with a running number and the size of the series is not limited, I also mark the date when I made the prints in question."
