Original artwork description:

When I was a child, I once found some bricks and shaped the outline of a house (just a small rectangular). For some reason, the house would only become inhabitable if there was a vase with flowers, so I used an aluminum tin as a vase. That memory is very strong, the feeling of the absolute necessity of that object, which encloses something primitive and mainly feminine. It might be the pure and simple joy of decorating, making that space my own, but I still sense it was something more than that.

Part of the collection "The Poetics of Space"

{I have always been interested in spaces in dreams (rooms, labyrinths, passages etc.) and my research lead me to Gaston Bachelard's "The poetics of Space". I found in that book many images, symbols and thoughts I had been using in my work and in my fantasies since I was a child. Shells, nests, connected rooms, caves and shelters are some of the spaces that inspire me.}
