MY WORLD
CONTEMPORARY DESIGN
"When I draw, work with materials and play with color, I feel like I'm dancing. I often work at night with music that accompanies me in my creative process. The one I choose transmits a certain energy to me that will be embodied in my work. The gesture is precise, but free. When I create, I do a lot of things that lead to nothing. Among all these experiments, certain objects emerge that come to mind in flashes: the projects that work are often born from these ideas. I drew the vases of my Totem collection in a few seconds, the result of multiple research and long observations. I immediately felt that this design offered a wide range of possibilities."
"When I create objects, I try to reproduce what nature inspires and passes on to me. In Portugal, in the workshops of my glassblowers, I often guide them.
I transfer to them the energy that I have received, and they transfer theirs to the object. There is an intention behind each object, a part of chance: this is what gives them a singularity, and a certain mystery."
