COLOR AND VACUUM is my personal project about the study of color, form and emptiness. A synesthesia exercise that recognizes the different emotions in colors. A research that elevates my creative discourse far beyond the simply aesthetic.

My working methods always focus on clean visuals and simplicity:
"If an artwork has reason for being, it is enough with very few elements."
(Alexander Calder)
