My artistic expression is composed by a mixture of inspiration from old and great artistic schools with a force of certain sophisticated social criticism divided between dimensions of time and space. In that parallel reality the relation between aesthetic and existential is the key to the development of artistic metaphors and paradoxes.

Iconography is made by stylized human portraits or figures, composed in a caricatural way, but with gesture which doesn’t lead to strong irony and without intention to laugh at. Their faces are covered by kindness and longing: they are surprised in a world they exist, but more than all - these characters search for collocutors from the other side. Main motive is to find more conversationalists.

Different cultural environments create an individual approach of the audience to art. That relation could be brought to valuable tolerance by successful impregnation between local tradition and internationalization. If we take it that art has always served to metaphysical interpretation of reality, and if artistic content is an invitation to dialogue, we are then in a good position to give to our work global meaning.
