I think of my work as wall pieces where layers of paint, collages, drawings and images can be seen as if time had started its work of forgetness, of erasement. The result is a poetic and decay atmosphere.

 

I do an intuitive work where images, texture and my impressions are at the foundation of it; to this I add new ways of experimenting and new materials.

My work is a reflection of myself; my childhood, the way I see life and death, my woman's life... what I lived and what I live.

 

I’m attempting to keep a trace; of time and of people, to work with the memories, to reinvent a story, to rebuild a past, maybe my own. My inspirations sources are: time marks, Woman and nature.The image of Woman, I seek it, decorticate it, invent it. She's part of a whole in my work.

The quest of my missing part...
