“I am  interested in different forms of visual arts: ceramic, batik.
But graphic art is my favorite.  
Though there is a lot of fantasy in my works they all are based
on real events from my everyday life. My drawings express my
deepest feelings and emotions. Nothing is accidental in my
works. I like to use symbols and objects that have hidden sense
and mystery…”
