Abstract visitation

This work is part of an experimental series that might be included in some sort of "automatic painting"technique: playing around with shapes, monotypia, and shape-guessing. This one ended up with two characters, a bit larger in the middle - thus the invented title: "Visitation"'. The scene could well be interpreted as one inspired by medieval scenes of pregnant Mary encountering the pregnant St. Elisabeth. You are free to see what you will, the intention was not religious but my labeling was influenced by the medieval studies I have dealt with.

Fell fee to check my website for the entire series, made during an international art camp in Bekescsaba, Hungary, in 2005.

Sculptures in Ordino

These are some improvised sculptures I made during the UNESCO art camp in Ordino, Andorra, July-August 2008. I've never played with sculpture before and metal seems a very difficult material to approach thus, but this was a fun improvisation, out of scarps, having someone to do the actual work of piecing them together according to our indications. They were naturally left there, as none of us could carry them away on a plane.
