“The figure is nothing unless you twist it around like a strange miracle.” - Willem de Kooning

In my early work, I worked with mud and I would shape and transform figures to ideas from my imagination and photograph them. In this work, I transform figures and places using homemade lenses made of found objects and glass pieces . Side by side, I can have some recognizable descriptions in my photographs and some that can be very abstract. My technique is manually optical and it enables me to compose in a manner that is closer to a painter’s process where my imagination and emotion shape what I see.
