The alchemic experience with the material reflects an ancestral desire to explore the sacred and sensual aspect of the materials. I like watching materials, discovering their essence, and understanding how I can transform them. Sometimes it is just like dialoguing with them.

My research focuses on the clash between geometric and organic forms, between dull rough and shiny surfaces, working alchemically with the materials.

This research is very clear in the accessories I create and in the sculptures. The paintings are like mirrors where one finally discovers his or her most intimate part, the soul.
