"Plays of contrasts, of lighting and of shades, of effects, lof gazes, a game of soft sensual violence, the hands playing with the support and the material. Focusing on what is real rather than on what is beautiful.
Facing the canvas like in the beginning of a fight, ready to go, to ruffle some feathers. Recognizing that a birth cannot happen without violence, without love, without pain."
