Biografia

In my sculptures, made up of repetitive forms of steel and cement, I am searching for balance. My quest begins with the literal balance between cement and steel. Then it stretches to the equilibration between heaviness and lightness, movement and constancy, and between structure and space.

The images, built with great care, stand firmly on their cement feet. The repetitive, almost organic shapes of metal strap on top, resemble a graceful, playful and spirited way to reach for something in the distance.

The teardrop shape that recurs in all my recent work, does not refer to literal drops or water. It is the drop, which has a corner on one side and is round on the other side, that creates movement. That makes it an interesting shape to use in my work.
