The materials that ruled my month and artworks th The materials that ruled my month and artworks  that  I am doing now on my pipeline are expressed on this pictures… 
Marbles, Semi Preziose stones, Bronze, Copper…. OR-ichacum.. just to name a few 

If you pay attention where this scupptures are installed .. you will know the countries and cities that I have been … 

Because if you know … you know … :) 

By the way the last picture is the overall feeling after so much travels… 😎
On my way to meetings this week somehow all these On my way to meetings this week somehow all these images feel very relevant. 

Because the bigger the stone we find on our path in life is directly proportional to the magnitude of the potential reward or the “Glory” to be achived 

Let’s pay attention always to the background details…. As they have the clue to overcome all the obstacles. 

In Germany “stepping on stones”
It came to Germany to talk about the business of a It came to Germany to talk about the business of art and design, surrounded by the language of engineering  manufacturing and performance. 
In a culture known for precision and systems and where it takes place design and engineer of the world’s finest machines on land, sea and air —— 
I found ——-
“Porta D’Amore” at the @mkghamburg a reminder that the most timeless masterpiece and the most enduring design and the oldest technology still is: 
Desire …
Beauty…. and the human condition

“On the WAVE of Love” Edward Munch Find it quite “On the WAVE of Love” 
Edward Munch 
Find it quite relevant today.. This work of Munch, caught my eye today for the first time. 
And I got moved .. because I did a similar work when I was a teen.. with similar waving patterns and manierismo. 
You can say that I got inspired by him.. but at the time that I did the drawing .. I didn’t know the existence  of this artist … I was simply in my own world . 
I think that artists and creatives of all times we are inspired by the same thing that move us and make us human .. THE WAVES OF LOVE
Some AIR WAVES will come along …. Tune this frequ Some AIR WAVES will come along ….

WE ARE ALL WAVES IN EACH OTHER’S LIFE We cannot WE ARE ALL WAVES IN EACH OTHER’S LIFE 

We cannot stop the ripples. But we can choose the stone.
Will it be heavy with anger, sharp with indifference?
Or will it be shaped by kindness, by awareness, by care?
Because even the smallest fragment carries weight.
Even the quietest drop reshapes the surface.
We are all waves in each other’s lives—rising, touching, passing through.
So choose gently.
Choose consciously.
Choose what you cast into the water.
The ocean is listening.

What appears as ONE is always MANY… A “WAVE” a “M What appears as ONE is always MANY…
 A “WAVE” a “MOSIAC”, a moment of alignment …
Neither a wave or a mosaic exists in isolation, both are born from the gathering of the smallest parts, almost invisible on their own … And in their unity, they become a greater presence, movement, artistic depth,  and inevitability…
And in the presence of the inevitable, once all parts converge it cannot be ignored, 
Wen a WAVE  rises, it becomes an experience, 
Admired from the shore, 
Ridden by a surfer,
navigated from a vessel, 
Or surrendered to within its current 
Each encounter is different —— BUT NEVER INDIFFERENT——

WOULD YOU STEP IN TO THE WAVE ?

A brief romance suspended between presence and absence.. where busywork life office overboard the emotions… here installed at Paris Gardens Building
