Ceramic Sculpture

My sculptures are inspired by macroscopic and microscopic marine organisms: their form, movement, interactions, evolution and the scientific research that is behind them.

Science Ilustration

I love working on info-graphics and illustrations for books, scientific papers and the web. I work with the authors in a personalised way to find the best way to portray their ideas.
