Lately, I combine my work with my love for poetry. My favorite poet Yannis Ritsos and his expressive, erotic poems are finding their way back into my paintings. In my teens his poems lived on my body, now they are burned into my paintings and monotypes. It is a fiery transition, in fast forward mode. I paint and print in wax, because the process embodies vulnerability, my stepping stone for progress and evolution.
