“Drawing is perceived by many as a minor, modest, primary media, just as paper being a material. They have both fascinated me since the beginning. The paper being a disposable matter rugged and pre-digital. And drawing, as a direct media, where each line contains traces of basic freshness and originality Deep fabrics, space and motion in various areas, inside and out, in the body and landscape. While drawing in the paper’s territory, space and activity are no longer separated and foreign. a new synthesis is formed between those two contrasts.”
