"The series Heat it up and melting mobiles discuss care work, as well as climate change (..) The objects are aesthetic, yet their flowing structure and colour process - harmonious and contrating tones and gradients - still manage to transport a sense of uneasy despite their beauty. In times of catastrophic global warming, the power of heat deformations can appeareaqually threatening. Further associative experimental image arrangements spread across the space, in which the artist transfers clours and shapes through heat into unpredictable reinterpretations. "(Anja Lueckenkemper).

"The climate crisis is also subject of Melting Mobiles, a series of images featuring melting mobile phone cases in an environment that is cloudily dissolving. It seems like anticipated archaeology: half- deformed smartphones, like relics that could one day be excavated." (Jesko Schulze-Reimpell, Donaukurier)
