Artistic process In my research there are two images that I always try to keep in my mind. The first is about a sculptor shaping clay.

Artistic process
In my research there are two images that I always try to keep in my mind.
The first is about a sculptor shaping clay. In some situations and for certain forms the sculptor will have to use some supports in order not to break down the clay. During the process of creating in his studio, he will use the first thing useful to his purpose. A piece of wood, rope or iron for building a "soul". What I'm trying to do in my work is to model a concept with clay and then remove it completely so that they can see the structure, the soul, the essence.
The second picture tells the '"overclocking". Overclocking is the process of running a computer component at a higher clock rate (more clock cycles per second) than it was designed for or was specified by the manufacturer. Taken to extremes the functions of a computer will cause an exceptional heat that is sometimes controlled by the use of liquid nitrogen. Even in this image are used the first things at hand to achieve its purpose as a container for milk, a piece of carpet and a plastic bottle. In this case, however, the goal is focused towards a concept closely linked to technology. This practice in itself contains a message that belongs to our time.
