Ces oeuvres sont ce qui nous reste d'elle avec le souvenir toujours présent de l'amie qu'elle fut.
On peut saluer le talent, l'émouvante réussite, mais ce qui bouleverse chez cet être d'un pays lointain, c'est ce désir,
cette volonté de nous être proche, de nous toucher,
ces efforts pour vivre près de nous, parmi nous.
Ces sculptures en sont le témoignage.
