Bicentennial Concert of Frederic Chopin

Fortchurch, en eighteenth-century church on the Caribbean island of Curacao, opened the door to commemorate the birthday of the great composer, as a part of the worldwide celebrations.
My projection welcomed everybody before the concert of Frederic Chopin's compositions.

My friend Amal Hammound...

The Music of Frederic Chopin has grown into the roots of this island, and that was my inspiration. This sculpture shows the symbolic connection between the composer, roots

and dividivi trees of Curacao.

"Kross Collection" Exhibition



















These are some photos from my last exhibition in The Fortchurch Museum in Curacao on March 19, 2008. My new collection of jewelery is named for Tania Kross, mezzo soprano opera singer. Tania Kross opened the event with an a capella performance, along with twelve models who were wearing the crosses I designed special for this event.
