ABOUT

Tales and Songs

“Tales and Songs” is a series of works inspired by stories, songs and my own private conversations and discussions. It explores historical themes and figures — often little known, but in my view significant or underestimated. The characters that appear here are chosen according to a purely subjective key of personal sympathy or antipathy. At times, the series also becomes an opportunity for a humorous dialogue with the old masters. Each work is created in my own technique, situated on the borderline between drawing and printmaking.
