White wooden relief. The composition is inspired by Frank Stella's “Turkish Mambo” from the Black Series II lithographic prints he made in the sixties. The work is made of strips of wood, fixed on canvas using paper mache pulp, finished by white paint.

The artwork is very light and does not require any special hanging hardware. It's fitted with a steel hanging wire. Dimensions are including the frame.

Sculpted art

My work focuses on sculpted patterns. It's a human instinct to look for patterns in anything we see. Patterns make us feel comfortable.

I like my work to be forceful and touchable, by giving it an extra dimension, height. The height also creates shadows which emphasizes the pattern while at other times, depending on the angle of the light, breaking it. The color of my work is usually white. White is a serene color that doesn't distract from the pattern while providing contrast for the shadows.

Main theme in my work is motion but I also like to experiment with whatever inspires me, e.g. nature and geometric forms.

My material of choice is paper mache. Like clay it can be molded in almost any form. But unlike clay it's light and strong, allowing it to be used in large, hanging wall pieces. The low weight, texture and smell of the material also make it very enjoyable to work with.
