The Ankh Cross
Since my childhood, the Ankh Cross has always intrigued me by its shape and its mystery.
This has considerably gained in significance during my voyage to Egypt.
I have made this cross with a coded memory on its surfaces.
I wear it.
It has also ben integrated into several of my works of art and it merges with my names.
