“True art is made with the hands and the heart.” —— Constantin Brancusi
For me, the power of sculpture lies not only in form — but in the traces of hands and time.
I am drawn to the extreme coldness of metal, yet I choose to shape it through a slow, intuitive, and highly handmade process — cutting, polishing, dislocating, and rebuilding piece by piece. Every line is born from repeated exploration and adjustment. Every fracture and connection is a conscious decision. Through these gestures, the coldness of stainless steel is softened — infused with human warmth and emotional texture.
In my work, animals are never just beasts. They are projections of human consciousness — wild yet restrained, powerful yet fractured, their majesty born of endurance, adaptation, and constant transformation. Perhaps, they are like us — bearing the marks of life, searching for their own inner order and strength.
Through mirror-polished stainless steel and hand-cut lines, I construct this living state — both real and illusory, both fragile and resilient. Sculpture, in this sense, becomes an open language — not only to be seen, but to invite each viewer to project their own stories, their own feelings, into the work.
To me, sculpture is never just about form. It is always about asking questions of existence — and leaving behind traces of a dialogue between human hands and the world.
