His work reflects his personality: introverted by nature, he immerses himself in the meticulous process of creating precise forms, only to disrupt them with extroverted, imperfect, statement-like gestures, producing a subtle tension that never dominates the composition. He seeks the essence of harmony not through repetition, but by uniting often-opposed elements, working primarily with wood, cardboard, resin, plaster, and paint, blending traditional and original techniques. Light and shadow cast by his geometric forms introduce an element beyond his control, while his monochromatic, raw, and tactile abstract compositions convey calm, sensual presence and reflect his true self. 2022.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eSHOWN IN WOOD CANVAS, ACRYLIC\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"card_accordion_box accordion_box\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page\" title=\"Page 1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page\" title=\"Page 2\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"card_accordion_box accordion_box\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eMM       W   1200     D   160     \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003eH\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e   1000\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"author-d-1gg9uz65z1iz85zgdz68zmqkz84zo2qowz80ziz78zoz67ztuquz83zz89zz86z3kz89zz69zjxz80zxz87z3gnkz81zsz122z3po\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eEXPECTED LEAD TIME     18\u003cspan\u003e\/22 WEEKS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"card_product_right\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"card_product_text typical_text 111\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page\" title=\"Page 2\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv title=\"Page 3\" class=\"page\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv title=\"Page 3\" class=\"page\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page\" title=\"Page 2\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease enquire via email for further information when ordering a custom piece.
