See the world through my eyes… People always had a basic need to create things for several motivations and reasons. Things that still exist today communicate the past – messages about nations, special places, events or relationships. They are signs from the past that tell us stories, whether real, fictional, or even of spiritual encounters.

My sculptures and works would like to tell stories from the past and present, the great cycles of mankind, or interpret the poetry of a possible future. The memories and imagination of the viewer form the actions and the content.

The aesthetic of industrial use of metal has always fascinated me. I like the idea of blending the destructive, strong, resistant, powerful, sides of industrial pieces and machinery with the more emotional and aesthetic purpose of art. It is like absurd creations of robust and indestructible (even destructive) objects in contrast with the cheaper ones we see in our everyday life. Our experience of life allows us to judge the performance and the resistance of an object. I make use of the way we perceive our world by visually exaggerating these characteristics.
