Statement

I usually draw inspiration from various forms of nature. I use trilobite fossils, natural stones, which I process myself to get the right shape. I combined materials, which are incompatible at first glance: fossils that are like a petrified clump of earth with luxurious motifs made of precious metals. A kind of "bristling" against excessively artificial, unnaturally stretched and "licked out" forms. My task as a metal artist is not to torture, not to "suffocate", not to overdo the object that is being created but to allow it to "live". Observe the metal turning into a living organism that later lands on the body.
