Statement
Under the concept of "art for peaceful change" my goal is to create colourful and engaging artworks about social political issues.
That can easily be seen on the collection How to Not Wear a Mask (solo exposition 2022) during the pandemic, as well as on other not exposed works about empowerment of women, or about children that are victimes of decisions they have no voice to make around the world.
Working with water medias for more then a decade, I am now diversifying my work with sculpture but with the same principles used in watercolor. Valuing the non precise, like the brush stroke on the painting or the crudeness of the clay, the exploration of the beauty on what is seen as imperfect or forgotten, the communication more than pure aesthetics. Always portraying the beauty of diversity in nature, society, and people.
