I firmly believe in the power of art and in the ability of art installations to be provocative, because they intimately touch the viewer’s feelings. I was born and was trained in an art studio, and since I was a child I have grown accustomed to communicating through the language of art. I have devoted my entire life to art: studying its history, carrying out restoration work, painting. I have combined these interests with my passion for the sea, because one of the most exciting feelings for me, even today, is when I am floating on the water. This state of floating and balance allows me to observe with curiosity, through the lenses of a mask, the fascinating underwater life.
