ARTIST STATEMENT

If the meaning evolves by the space around which the object is placed and the care taken by the artist to position it subsequently somewhere, then an artwork can sometimes appear. This of course can be very tricky.
I suppose I like mostly to make meanings where there are none and to find a space for all that I love.
It is precisely the parallel worlds of the real and of the imagination, where I situate these investigations.
