Creating mixed media and mosaics, for me, is a meditative act, a dialogue with myself and the materials, guided by the interplay of light, color and texture. I am fascinated by the union of pieces and the discovery of their unknown potential as I break and place a tessera after tessera, till they bloom and blend, creating something new, together. My work captures a fleeting moment, a feeling or a gaze, simple things that matter, with the promise of eternity in this digital era of dematerialised memories.
ln 2011 I went to Ravenna, Italy to learn the ancient mosaic techniques and the most modern ones with the mosaic masters. I came back to Italy in 2015 (Ravenna)and 2019 (Piacenza) to continue studying and refining my technique. I moved to Dubai in 2018 where I work as a full time artist.
