About
the Art:
In
a world of physical principles, my work
denies accepted scientific properties and provides
the visual experience
between what your eyes see and what
you believe you
see by creating a false perception
between the physical world and
conceptual reality. In this unknown
zone, I play between two dimensional objects and
three dimensional
physical
sculpture
that forces you to develop your own
perception of what you see in my works - thus creating
your
own
reality.
