About works / performance

In my working process, I always start with a new conceptual idea, take some time for contemplation, develop the idea into visual materials. Then I have to decide what media I should use and then choosing the best appropriated materials to realize the work. The media I have worked with are painting, sculpture, installation, photography and video / animation.
