There is a theory that every feeling lives in a particular place within us, my work is about the house of my feelings.
Tenderness fills us completely in gentle waves.
Courage encourages us to move in the chosen direction.
Desire is an impulse at the tips of the fingers.
Joy makes you want to dance.
Pain burns you from the inside.
Kindness - a bright aura transmitted from us.
Sadness takes away all colours and absorbs all other feelings.
Love flies into us from an unknown direction and settles where the heart is.
Happiness wanders through our body and illuminates us completely from the inside.
