"The moment of grace. That moment when you just let yourself float away on your back or when the simple fact of being alive makes you want to shed tears of joy. The precise moment when you fall to your knees and nothing else matters. During the transformation, these little moments of magic become increasingly present and take us by surprise. We become aware that, every morning, the sun gives us a gift. The moment of grace is, falling in love with yourself, but it’s also the unique vibration when two souls meet."

"I’m fascinated by the beauty and complexity of the human body. I work mainly with clay because I find it’s the best medium for interpreting the human shape: clay gives me the flexibility to express body dynamics, by constantly exploring the limits of movement."

"I’m interested in finding the harmony in chaos. I believe there’s richness in diversity and we need to celebrate it and showcase it. It’s through differences that we can find ourselves."

"I want to create art that is interesting both visually and intellectually. Using random shapes, spaces and components, I create paintings that convey my thoughts on the social or psychological behaviours of human beings. I want my art to be considered profound but playful, because that’s how I feel when I create."
