As a simplified projection of each of us they still are enough to understand what it lies between the light and our eyes.

His works, predominantly made on paper and graphite, or oil on wood, are a costant search of creating a symbolic visionary which is often half revealed trough close up images, leaving the hint of a bigger revelation without spoiling it.

“Magic Circle” is a series of work which focus on the ancient medieval tradition of circles rituality, often used to provide magical protection.  My drawings act with the same purpose.  A circle made of plants with the intent to shield from adverse forces.
