My inspiration comes from studying the nature around us. The intricate structure of a leaf, robustness of grass, wind blowing through an open window or moon reflecting in the water, all creates the logical harmony of our nature's "building blocks". The nature is pure, clean, and precious in its own creation, such insights are on my mind when I create my sculptures, simple, yet elegant, intended to enrich, decorate and above all distinguish the space as beautiful flowers or morning sunlight would. In my recent work I have incorporated into my abstract vision a timeless beauty of a human form. After more than two decades, I am returning to a figurative sculpture with a new sculptural approach.
Instead of more common casting and assembly of ready made parts, I prefer fabricating process, physically shaping and forming a flat sheet of metal into a sophisticated curvilinear form. Bronze, the material used by sculptors for a thousand of years, is my preferred medium. To reflect a true poetry of the form, I enhance the character of bronze with color patinas. I also like to work with a stainless steel. Beautiful contemporary metal which high-mirrored surfaces transform a simple natural shapes into elegant creations. But whether I work with bronze, stainless steel, aluminum or raw steel, I apply my knowledge, expertise, and talent to create a unique sculpture of fine quality and perfect execution.
Being also introduced to printmaking, you will find in my portfolio prints and sculptures developed together. My hand-pulled prints explore the visual relationship between the two artistic arenas and bridge the gap between 2 and 3 dimensions.
