Lot Essay

‘I became myself the day I dared to do certain things that I thought were forbidden. To create, one must have a great freshness, a great naivety. What we call the sacred fire. In the studio, you forget yourself, and the material transforms you. Suddenly, one thing leads you to another and so on. In reality, when you are an artist, you have fun’ – César
