“These prints rung from iron, acid and color, radiate tranquility, confidence and creativity.
The adventure of a method reaching back to the very roots and origins of the creative impulse have here captured a phenomenon, which, independent of the process of realization, afford the viewer an experience of pronounced aesthetic intensity.” (Dr. Wilhelm Mrazek, Former Director of the Austrian Museum of Applied Arts in Vienna, Austria) (sample of recent years) Solo exhibitions Group exhibitions
