Artist Statement
ARTIST STATEMENT
I work in cast bronze, using the “lost wax” process or sand casting.
In my sculptures I try to express beauty and harmony in clean and fluid lines and to bring out good feelings of pleasure and peace of mind sometimes, other times I try to provoke thoughts, associations, memories, ideas. I don’t separate between aesthetics and the search for meanings. I strive to convey feelings and expressions, through their fluidity of lines and proportions.
I find that the search for beauty , aesthetics and meanings gives me a sense of internal peace, purpose, a caress to the soul, it gives me hope and comfort, thus widening horizons and enriching the soul. I hope this is felt by the viewers too.
