Having a Dutch father and a Romanian mother, it didn’t surprise me at all that I was born in one of world’s
melting pot and  meeting point: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. And although life, art and love brought me to distant
places, for me Brazil has always been the place to be. As beauty has no frontiers, however, I’ve been living in
other countries as well: Mexico, USA, Italy, China and, from 2003 onwards, The Netherlands. Our three children
were born during this long journey.

Beauty, indeed, is the thing I love most. But not beauty for beauty’s sake alone. From a very young age I felt that
real beauty couldn’t exist without interior harmony. I’ve always tried to express this feeling in my works: graphic
design, photos, silkscreen, stained glass and acrylic sculptures. I think the glass assemblages I’m making the
last few years are perfectly fitting this idea.
