"During the last few years, the hybrid process between text and image has become my main creative line. First of all, I’m interested of the opposition between the matter, as physical presence, and the word as a concept. In the second place, my intention is to investigate the rearrangement of these two codes in the independent sign system. My main inspirations are the Roland Barthes’s texts, and the idea that a written language is primarily a visual object. From the artistic point of view, I would like to suggest two questions: what can be read between few letters and a piece of body and what kind of reading the matter can provide us?"
