A constantly changing, expressive figure made of steel and bronze, with clear lines and contours – “The Dreamcatcher” – with which I try to depict the wide range of human feelings and fantasies: Love, hope, joy, sadness, the whole palette of life is the subject of my many years of work. During the working process in my studio, I create a very special atmosphere of sound and light, which enriches and influences my work from the very beginning and has become my concept, using light and shadow to create a symbiosis between sculpture and painting. The viewer opens up his own worlds. As a backdrop, I use special spaces such as old industrial plants, natural gardens and parks as well as sacred spaces. In them I try to incorporate features of nature and architecture and their atmosphere into my work.I love the work of children, they are free and imaginative.Like them, I play with form, light, sound and space.
