I tend to fish from my unfinished projects, drew by chance during my past years, so that I can then give dignity to what looks abandoned and neglected. To create the mixture, I use the pc, as it enables me to use supports, techniques and concepts which are not necessarily homogenous - so often they all come from something so different from their arrival point. It is the same for what I use for the more traditional works; they were often born for other purposes, which have now lost their usefulness. Going on, I have moved from an attention towards people – to what you can actually guess about their own story – to an attention towards their relationships. I am obsessed by relations and bonds, not a very deep level, I am attracted by what you see, what you can externally observe. I am interested in the need and suffering and in the dignity and strength where you would less expect them. I often trace compassion, extreme strengthens and courage. I just point out that I am talking about need of a personality to be complete, full and to the need for spirituality proximity; I am not talking about the need for food or clothes, I am interested in the social sphere. On the end I look for so long that I feel I am wearing out all this. I look till the stillness that my stupor gives me does not become “being aware of so much beauty.” Everything that I am doing answers my very own need to have certain characters nearby, and that is their only way to stay close. Lately, I have started to become fascinating by the environment that contains all these relationships. I am still curious and fascinated by mothers as well, I tend to represent them everywhere. I have created characters that they are what and who they are due to their mothers. I believe we are what and who we are due to their intervention; I find this relationship extremely fascinating. The fulcrum is the relationships, the bonds and concatenations that strike my imagination; it is their tangle that becomes representation of positions in space. I think about the structure of the relations and the environment and I create a body and a scenario to suit a personality. I try to create associations through colours and shapes that illuminate the bonds between its components and the nature of the different characters.
