There is tension in the first instant when the paint touches the surface or when a line begins to run across the support. Nothing is predictable. We are hostage to chance. Sometimes I take uncertain paths. Mistakes turn into successes. I make up my own rules. In art there are no absolute truths - it is a free territory.

My work process is very intuitive and exploratory. I love the challenges of the unpredictable. I test materials and supports all the time. The unknown attracts me. It's a field of possibilities. Color has a very strong presence in my work. From the deepest black to the brightest tones.

And so I create my images, building fictional landscapes through small sparkling dots and lines that intertwine, forming detailed and intricate designs.
