Most of his works devote an important role in the creative process to the displacement, a journey or a walk. Very often these works combine simultaneously both the production process and the experience of displacing itself.

He has also participation in artistic residences in Latvia, Lithuania, Slovenia, Norway, Germany, Finland and The Netherlands.
