 The animals in work are often composite creatures, combining different body parts or elements of nature. These properties are not meant to be symbols, but are expressions of the spiritual characteristics of the animal in question.
The dog Apuleius, for instance, is in a position between sitting and standing. She guards the area in which she is placed, constantly at attention, the lethal tail ready to strike. At the same time she is a mother animal, with breasts full of milk, which is able to give.



This duality gives the dog an undetermined personality. When I look at the dog, her indefinite nature has the effect of engaging me in an intuitive dialogue, and of arousing my empathy.
The unconscious intuitive extension of what the viewer perceives is something I strive for in the entirety of my work.
