Statement
In the series Coexistence I seek to find links between nature and humanity. I go out to collect forgotten objects in the environments where they coexist: in the streets, squares, sewers, or on the side of train tracks. From the daily collection of these human and natural elements, new forms of coexistence and interaction are created. These sculptures achieve their own balance for 24 hours, and then return to their place of origin.
