artist statement

we live in times in which we have simply forgotten how to pause and observe anymore , everything boils down to the moment, quick impressions, like we’re shooting through life, and that makes me sad. i am interested in something totally different: to summarise lots of moments on canvas or paper, duration, therefore classical, eternal beauty.
