«... The basis of my credo is an expression of man's inner world not through the finished, finished form certain phenomenon or object, but through the movement itself - the intensity - the process - pulse - changes the rhythm and so on . In the end I can say that the very form of construction, the very type of design is even an obstacle to my main idea. It is too constrained, naked and unique ... It does not boil life, there is no dynamic tension. Sometimes I think that design is dead as a corpse, lifeless. But if it ceases to be strictly stationary, then even the skeleton of the structure becomes highly emotional softness, greater dynamism and expressiveness.

wants to work with electromagnetic fields, with a pulsating plasma clots in space, with the movement of gases and liquids, with mirrors and all sorts of optical effects, changes in temperature and the different smells, and of course with music "(LA Nusberga).
