I try to make it into a new creation that somehow still reminds you of the original image. Every work takes a different amount of time....I think the time it takes is not important. How you cut the paper is more important. Vogue Portugal

I want you to look at yourself in my mirror, see that everything is there and nothing is 100% what you expect or want. It is a ecosystem in flux, evolving and growing. To exist in a space between ugliness and beauty but to always be attractive to the eye, that is what I want. astmag

When I begin working, I have printed a few copies of something to play with, I cut the essential areas, and start moving them around on a panel, trying to find that place half way between the image in my head and the image that makes itself in front of me....Our Culture

When I was young the art prints my parents displayed around the house were a big inspiration for me. I wanted to make beautiful things that were shocking, even frightening. I used to make bizarre sculptures, and I made funny little chic monsters in my sketchbook out of collage, quickly this became my focus. Vogue Portugal
