STATEMENTS After doing installations, videos and performances, since 2000, I use to be a painter. I consider the act of painting more like a process of thinking. Working without knowledge of what I will do, building it, act after act, balancing structure and gesture. I try this way to find new ways of thinking in order to understand our world and find new issues.
