“I deeply feel the charm of places and I recognize their expressive potential,” he stressed. “My main interest is the relationship between the different elements of the landscape and how contemporary languages dialogue with each other, building its emotional structure. I always spend the right time studying and understanding the characteristics of the site, which become constituent parts of the work.”
His experimentations with wire mesh are as stunning as they are thought-provoking. Take a look for yourself:
