"In my painting I pretend perhaps the impossible: beauty. For me, beauty is the goodness that
goodness that enters through the senses. To believe, and to make believe, persuading with a painted surface, that in the world there are more things worthy of admiration than of denunciation and condemnation. And wanting a beautiful world is already a way of manifesting the hope of a good and just world.

"Beauty is perfect justice," writes Camus in his Carnés. Among these senses, sight is fundamental, but touch is the final station. Touch the world, embrace it, and melt us, through these textures of color and dream, offered to the retina by a painting always, inevitably, imperfect, but enchanted."
