In the 1980s, I abandoned color as a medium to devote myself to the medium of light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I used light as a nuance; I made it penetrate the thickness of the paper by incising lines with a knife of my own making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The incision opens a gap and reveals relief and shadow. The gap creates an expanded form, a transparent and delicate quivering that vibrates in filigree in the light.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

The intensity and nuances of colors imbued with light vary according to the intervals and depths of the incisions. The work is a receptacle, an allusion to enjoying the imperishable vibrations of light. Its eternal movement has its temporality as much as our perception. We move toward it as much as it moves toward us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is the light emerging in the latent space of the paper that perhaps expresses the complexity of human nature in what it demands of us to approach the essential and the ideal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
