Artist statement: “ In my sculptures I try to express beauty and harmony in clean and fluid lines, while using a minimalistic style, and to bring out good feelings of pleasure and peace of mind.

Working with everlasting materials and dealing with human eternal themes, positive and universal, gives me a more balanced perspective of life and the world. The feeling of continuity, the knowledge that my works will remain long after myself, even after my descendants, is very comforting, easing the natural and universal fear of reaching an end.

I find that the search for beauty and aesthetics gives me a sense of internal peace, a caress to the soul, a rising to higher levels that allows me to disconnect from oppressive realities . It gives me hope and comfort, thus widening horizons and enriching the soul.”
