Statement:
\"For me the experience of creating a painting represents the encounter with possibilities and a reality without object. It is something constructive. The origin of my painting revolves around one simple constant: Color relation. Everything in the painting has to do with the dynamics that occur between the different ways I apply the color and the material.\"
