In the course of his childhood and youth, he continued to pursue art as a mean of expression and experimented with many different methods and styles. These experiences form the background of his today’s work. In puberty, Timo started drawing with spray cans as well. Since then, the clacking of the can at the train tracks has shaped him more than anything else and can be felt throughout many of his works. Timos’ style is characterized by a great artistic diversity and ranges from classical acrylic painting to sculptural works.
