Pluridisciplinary Artist. Areas of Interest: Sound-Art,, Body-Art, Performance, Abstract Voice, Improvisation, Field-Recording, Site-Specificity, Oriental Philosophies and Practices (Aikido and Shinto), Anthropology, and Photography. Grand Theme: Identity (not necessarily political, but in more holistic terms) Lately, has been working increasingly with relations between Sound, Body, and Space. Every concept demands a specific realization. There are no pre-set forms or ideas. Instead, there is a commitment to bring to life each artwork in its own light. The focus is more on experience than in produced objects. Emotions rather than recyclables. Less is more.
