"The
motifs of my works come from my surrounding: views and rooms
I like. The light gives these "real" things an abstract
dimension. The joy of a certain view gives me the energy for
starting the work: composition, lines, relations.
I am working on reducing information while trying to keep
a clear expression.

"Drawing and engraving is for
me a way to structure my inner world, to study and communicate
imaginary and inconscient things. The long manipulations of
the traditional printmaking processes are similar to the slow
evolution of my subjects, the time to realize a print is corresponding
to the time it keeps growing in my mind. The sculptural realization
of a woodblock pulls the inner picture out of the fog of imagination
and gives it a clear form. Titles and text open a special
perspective, or work like the beginning of a story."
