I have always loved icons.

My parents took me to Greece and Italy starting at age 5.

These memories and early images of art are still with me, vivid and beautiful.

They come and go and very often meander through my works.

Is it a coincidence that I work in wax? The Fayum Portraits and the Bycantine Icons are my language, they are talking to me intensly.

Beginning of this year I realized that my figurative work is a continuation, a series that adresses the female heroines in myths, religions and daily life:

Portraying the past and the course of human history and culture.

I created a little movie : Icons of the Feminine, featuring my figurative works 2010-2011,1.

Music : L'Arpeggiata, VIA CRUCIS

Enjoy!
