I don’t carve wood.
I carve what I feel — and the wood responds.
I never begin with a plan
I work with wood intuitively, without sketches or predefined plans.
Each piece begins as a conversation — not a design.
learned by working, by making mistakes, and by listening.
Over time, I began to understand how different woods respond, where they resist, and where they open.
It is a physical process — shaped through resistance, dust, and time.
This is not about control.
It is about attention.
Listening to the wood
I don’t begin with a fixed idea.
I begin by looking, by turning the wood, by listening.
The grain suggests direction.
The resistance shows where to slow down.
Nothing is forced.
Everything is discovered.
Revealing the surface
This is not about finishing.
It is about revealing.
Wax does not cover the wood.
It allows it to come closer to light, to touch.
What was hidden becomes visible.
What was rough finds its balance.
When it becomes complete
There is no exact point when the sculpture is finished.
There is only a moment when it stops asking for more.
When the form feels quiet.
When nothing needs to be added or removed.
That is when I step back.
