As an art student I started to make coloured sculptures. Ten years later, around 1980, I bought a packet of clay in a hobby shop and it was a great adventure and highly satisfying for me to build my first piece in clay. From then on my technique became better and better and now it is my favourite material. Around 1993, I began making art works connected with our planet. I tried to establish “Terra” as a universal name for it. Over the past two or three years I have been working on these wall pieces. I see them as a kind of homage to the most perfect place for us in the universe.
