In the pieces formed by the hands of this artist one observes such a respect for the material that it seems as if they have taken shape by themselves. The slabs on whose surfaces the earth coagulates or trickles in a wave like pattern to reveal colours of natural geological stratifications are one example. Even when the artist's intervention is indisputable even to the eye of the most inexpert observer, where figures are the protagonists, it is just as if he brushed the supporting slab with slender spare movements in passing, leaving no trace behind.
It is not a case of minimalism but rather, I would say a studied approach to the technique subjected to the poetics of the artist.
