"his encounter with Jose Bravo did inspire me, he allowed me to look at myself through the eyes of someone else and to generate this energy."
"hold the photos in my hands was unbelievable, looking at them, remembering the moments. They were the moments of that week but also something beyond this; they were the pictures of the places where I had grown, of the people who had grown with me. And I could really feel Jose’s sensibility. He had succeeded in capturing the moments or the objects which are important for me although I had said nothing about them. I did not want to influence his work, the decisions were his."
"And in front of this table full of inspiration, I was delighted to select a picture and to go to the workshop. Sometimes, I took a stone with me, sometimes not. It depended on what the moment inspired me.
We had built some kind of dialogue, this metal wire on my work table and I. We played at creating. I met a man last year who told me one could perceive my taste for playing and for fun in my jewel. I was pleased he had seen that, because it is really what happens. I play."
