‘this series started with an invitation to an exhibition and the challenge of the theme, Gogoísme, made me research small pre-historic toys, animal illustrations from several American graphic designers and go back to my childhood drawings, where shapes are opened to interpretation.
I chose Perspex as an easy main material to work with and also to take advantage of its color. Having many colors to choose from, I went back to the early days of plastics jewellery and toys to pick the red and pearl hues.’
