Capturing that which is ephemeral "When I admire landscapes, places and seasons, I understand the ephemeral beauty of nature and how everything is only temporary. The beauty of time and its evolution fascinate me.
To capture the essence of this ephemeral nature, I use a material that emanates from it - paper.
Unlike bronze, gold or marble, paper is not a sacred material for making objects of heritage.
However, it's this very reason why paper has a prominent place in Asian societies, who don't only consider that which is everlasting but also that which is ephemeral and fragile, symbolizing human existence."
