Metal is not silent.
It remembers, reacts, transforms.
I treat it as a living surface — copper, brass, silver, and gold carry not only material weight but also emotional and spiritual memory.
It speaks through rust, oxidation, and the sound of prayer — revealing itself in texture, color, and quiet presence.
Each work becomes a moment of encounter between metal and time.

Exploring the concept of “interest” as both a driving force and a constantly shifting state of mind, this work reflects the dynamic nature of curiosity and engagement.
It highlights how interest can evolve, deepen, or age over time, serving as both reflection and illumination.
Forms and textures create a tension between attraction and detachment, symbolising the complex relationship between what captures our attention and what ultimately holds our focus.

This work explores the timeless clash between ideals and power. Using silver, acrylic, and the blackening technique, a contrast is created between the figure of Don Quixote - symbolising unwavering faith in ideals - and the Pope, who embodies earthly power and authority.
The interaction of these symbols reveals the theme of delusion: the struggle between inner convictions and external pressure, and the vanity and chaotic transience of earthly life.
