Through the past few years my work is based on the problem of the sculptural form, its existence in the exterior, nature and urban surrounding. I have been concentrated on the theme of site-specific and social-specific sculpture through my studies and my work as a freelance artist.

My guiding idea, as a sculptor, is mass that dominates, not-closed form and expressive shape, very stylized and powerful. The form that I represent is an outcome of my inner feelings and thoughts, but it is also important on its strong geometrical shape and interesting aesthetic composition. In the same time, my sculpture represents the feeling of freedom. Being liveable and touchable is her inside message.

I work with different materials such as clay, wood, iron and stone in all its varieties. Since, I have participated in many international sculpture symposiums, the desire to create pieces of large dimensions became my constant need. My goal is to create sculptures in open space, that shall relate to the identity of location and enrich the space with their new sculptural shape, new spirit.
