Diamond cave

decided to hide in a cave, very deep and very dark
the only light can’t be explained
I just want to be alone

but than…as if the smell of light woke up the world, it turned out that I was seek­ing myself in a dia­mond cave
and while above I was with my friends

now I’m with the mass, and it’s hard to leave a tear upon that
because they might think it’s a diamond.…and even steal my only tear left

Visual artist that works in dif­fer­ent media and fields, on this web­site you can view work from my daily life and sur­round­ing. The dec­o­ra­tive value of art is to me less impor­tant as the com­mu­nica­tive sig­nal it can rep­re­sent to the spec­ta­tor but also its nat­ural behav­iour to step aside from log­i­cal expec­ta­tions and under­stand­ings its bound to fol­low a path and con­struc­tion which is close to real­ity yet far away from it because it gets shaped from non-logical har­mony.
