"Time has always been one of the variables that define artistic perception, creation and appreciation. It is impossible to conceive art as separated from its time, and although this is something that appeals to all artists, I often find that I’m obsessed with the depiction of that time, with the dilemma of encapsulating its perception in a medium that is always insufficient for the fourth dimension."
