The artist comments on the artistic process:

The concept of life inspired me to ponder on its reflection through all the expressions of nature – sea, land, air, water, movement – ​​converting it into shapes and colors with symbolic values. Dreams play a predominant role in this and all of the moments that have left their mark on my life.
