My work is always a movement from a simple to the complex. It is an invitation to reflect on the familiar and seemingly simple things as something deeper and more meaningful. It is a reflection on the fragility and vulnerability of the world around us.

My first series was about women in fashion and was based on photos from Vogue magazine. The work was made in a figurative art style and full of graphics, to specially underline the complexity of professions related to the fashion industry, indicating the depth of the person who made the choice to build a career in this field.

The direction I work in is «Geometrism».
As an architect, one has to analyse and work with form. One of the tasks is to create a harmonious combination and interaction of forms, their color and texture.

In my artistic work I often use familiar techniques from working with space.
My interest in exploring the infinite potential of geometry led to the creation of a series of works called "DNA".
It is a series of works conducting analogy with human inheritance.

Each of the three works in the «DNA» triptych series is united by a common initial combination of several geometric shapes-that is, a DNA molecule that holds the genetic code. Then, by different combinations of lines and their intersections-as cell division in biological processes, works not similar to each other are born, initially having a common basis.
