“For me, the fusion of sculpture, music and dance is not a performance but a communion.” A.K.

"Jazz and Sculpture are created urgently. Extreme risk is the minimum condition of this creation, the absolute measure of the musican and sculptor...... Revival of verticality in my sculpture is linked to statuary, music and dance." A.K.
