The Main Thing Is To Be Moved,

What Is Commonly Called Ugliness In Nature Can In Art Become Full Of Beauty.

In Front Of The Model I Work With The Same Will To Reproduce Truth As If I Were Making A Portrait. I Do Not Correct Nature, I Incorporate Myself Into It; It Directs Me. I Can Only Work With A Model. The Sight Of Human Forms Nourishes And Comforts Me.

The Delicate Droop Of The Petals Standing Out In Relief, Is Like The Eyelid Of A Child.

I Choose A Block Of Marble And Chop Off Whatever I Don't Need.

My Drawings Are The Result Of My Sculpture.
