Sculpting for me is a testimony to the beauty and intelligence that there is in nature. It is to build a poem in space, it is to arrange solid forms and movements, voids which create a balance, it is to play with the light, to splash it on a roundness or to trap it in the shade, slide it gently on a curved plane.

 

I sculpt the material and I offer it to the spectator so that he feels the same emotion as me when I discover a new plant or that I pick up a pebble.
