Lives and works in Portugal

Artist statement

Life inspires me to create. Connection between people, human condition. I may feel inspired by a situation or just by feeling. Lyrics inspire me the most, phrases that remain deeply engraved in me. Often those words and letters appear in my mind, resound in my body. I want to show the sensation and connection of powerful words and fluttering energy with rhythm and space through the use of multiple layers. My ultimate accomplishment would be to be able to change other people’s inner world and to color the emptiness in their lives, to put smiles on their faces and a little bit of music on their walls. I would like that one who sees my works, feels secure and knows that there is somebody else who feels the same in this alienated world which we are all part of.
