Statement
I locate my art into a neo-minimalist field. I look for the aesthetic of beauty and the harmonic consolidation of the rectilinear form. I seek to carry the artwork to its minimum and pure expression, to maintain the consonance and to achieve a great visual effect. In my sculptures and installations I have been developing a simple geometry, with a highly industrialized finish in a constant search of interplay with the space to create physical and virtual volumes that are able to awake our senses.
