"The white cacholong has offered me the theme for some years. In the natural material there are all the white shades you can think of. When you look its whiteness long enough, you start to see some colours. This stone has the perfect athmosphere, it is minimalistic and quiet, stagnant but not boring, quite noble even. It looks soft and gentle, but it is not the truth. In a white stone all details show more clearly. In the emptiness there is content. Where is the limit of your expression or form, where is the limit in minimalism?"

The white is waiting, it is silent, quiet and calm, it is clear and comforting, and frighteningly empty.
