Artist Statement

My glass sculptures evolve. Recently, I have started a new artistic cycle where I experiment based on a new idea: to print in the material some fragments of the surroundings. Like traces of the past are pressed in the rocks when fossils are created,

My glass is also marked with such an organic stamp. To achieve this effect, I use a variety of botanical elements, but also other bas-relief sculptures. I explore the capabilities of different textures, making them the key elements of new compositions.

It’s a way to present another fantastic quality of glass as a material. One that can not only be shaped and formed freely but also reflect other structures and textures, retaining a sign of much more fleeting elements within it.
