STATEMENT
My artworks have a vintage style, and maybe that’s because I use original papers and magazines from the beginning of the 20th Century. As a calligrapher, I love to write my thoughts or just songs lyrics on some artworks. I love type, it’s part of my job. A simple piece of paper is for me a treasure. Old books, magazines, pictures, letters, post cards… all are treasures for my collages.
