in Nov. 2003 I was invited by an energy company to visit a power plant in Trinidad and Tobago. I started to work on a new project I called Energy. In February 2004 I started painting about this subject. Based on the general issue of energy and focusing on the feelings and imaginative responses engendered by industrial icons, I created turbine-flowers, done in digital media and painting. The image inside the flower is the imprint of a turbine-burner, an image I chose after spending a few days in a natural gas power plant in Trinidad and Tobago.
