I have the inevitable need to put my feelings and desires into shapes and colors to give them meaning and understand the structure of my life as if it were a great infographic. This is how solid and firm compositions appear, like decisions made with certainty and courage. Other forms are large and anthropomorphic like warriors in readiness seeking company and support in my deepest solitudes. At other times, the works become light and transparent and resemble waves of falling in love and reverie. My works are the prayers that I make to my biggest fears, to my blurred desires, to my translucent feelings, all converted into my shapes and colors, in the development of my own language that I use to understand my existence and my passage through life.
