The first test was a stream of energy coming out of me. Somehow I just started assembling materials and creating. It was like the flow of vibrant and emotional life. Alive wood, paper, nails... Materials begin to interact and tell me what to do. And when the final piece was done, I felt such bliss that there was no limit to happiness. For me, it was like flowers in a vase, for my husband, it was cut human entrails, but it was such a lively and emotional new thing.

Creative process
Inspiration
Through the work of Phyllida Barlow, I understood what it means to live through the material. Time flows along with the creation of work, and it is endowed with this time of my life. A screw is screwed in, paint flows, roll up paper with tape, and my life is shortening by doing these things.
