I create compositions by enlarging and modelling shapes. The movement of the trace conveys the action in time. The red, powerful and invigorating colour, contrasts the theme of the series. Associated with the use of flat shapes and volume, achieved by the light and shadow drawing, it creates tensions that give strength to the final work.
