Art Manifesto
-
Art mediates between me and myself, enabling a glimpse inside me, to the flies that keep buzzing in my head.
-
Art's tools make it possible to express myself and maintain my daily balance, in expressing that which is beyond words.
-
For me, art is a mental necessity, to express myself; I am fascinated by the work itself, by sharpening the mind, and the brainstorms accompanying it. Therefore, I enjoy participating in exhibitions arranged around concepts.
-
My work is characterized by mixed techniques and materials, drawings and splashes of color are laid one upon the other, expressing my inner turmoil and calm.
