Works freed from an eclectic imagination, captivating and mysterious proposals with humble materials: wood, stone, ceramics, metals, ytong.

The figures and the matter express themselves breaking the apparent immobility. Recurrent subjects, the figure of the horse and the female body, executed in various declinations as in a sort of ritual, a mantra of peace. Copper and woody stems surround characters taken in static moments of balance as in a still image of moving figures, overwhelmed by a vortex that characterizes expressive research.

The characters depicted enter into dialogue with the observer. The works convey a harmonious structure in contrast between fragility and strength, tranquility and unpredictability. The horse is identified into a powerful symbol of freedom.
