He graduated from the Academy of Arts with a degree in “Design”. He chooses a career in graphic design, namely logos – a passion which is due to his conviction that this is the most frugal and balanced combination of graphic culture, intellectual and artistic abilities. Peak in the artist's work is its territory in the journal MD.The pages he has designed represent graphic design – alway different, considering the topic and the author and always unexpected.
STATEMENT OF ART:Every graphic element comunicates on two different levels. The first one is through a unique graphic wit that creates a sense of delight. The second but not less important level of comunication impresses the observer with a delicate deformation and a high degree of aesthetics, graphic harmony, and ultimately striking tastefulness which can not be put into words, but can be felt, thus inspiring the observer with respect due to its most noble esoterism, the one typical of art.
