When the Irish born American femme fatale Lola Montez had her photograph taken at a Boston studio in 1851, neither she nor anyone else could foresee the future symbolic value of the cigarette as a sign of emancipation for women and the tragic development that we are now facing with women as the next wave of the tobacco epidemic. With the dress and hairstyle that she was wearing in the photograph Lola Montez could have passed for a lady, if it wasn't for the cigarette which stood out so effectively against her black gloved hand . Used as the focal point of this picture, the cigarette was intended to be provocative.

Every work I start is an experiment. There's more to words to describe the evolution of each idea in the space and time it takes for it to materialize. There's the emotion I have for it, the feelings that arise at each stage of the making and then there's the joy of seeing that idea accomplished into a work or a series. My purpose is to create something that is meaningful and personal as well as deeply connected to the present moment through the topics that I choose to represent. Images and contexts that are directly derived from the human spirit, from the casual of civilization and evolution. Images of consumption and desire. Emotions like love, lust and joy get mixed together with powerful social statements and intriguing colors. The result is a complex mix of images and shapes. My intention is to achieve surprising associations of imagery: a reflection of my way of seeing life.
