Artist Statement: Volume and Space are concepts that have influenced my art. I am particularly fascinated by their appearance in the human body.
I am interested in exploring dialogue: both internal dialogue, which exists within oneself, and external connection that moves between two people or objects. My art explores “contradictions” which are attracted to each other and create a new whole. The human figure appeals to me as an adequate form for expressing these ideas.
I would like to concentrate my attention on capturing absence, an impression, commemorate memory, fleeing presence, give physical form to a spiritual value. The absence transferred into visual terms, long after it ceased to exist.
