==Work ==
His great love and fascination for nature, combined with an open approach to life and art, galvanizes a highly unconventional art. Sone works in various media and is primarily known for his sculpture - including marble and crystal carving and installations - but he also paints, creates performance art, and creates films. Some of Sone’s sculptural works include cities or sceneries carved into large blocks of marble, and oversized snowflakes carved out of single pieces of natural crystal. Sone does not exploit the heritage of one particular culture through his work, but instead draws on his extensive travels as he strives to create a singular poetic vocabulary connected to culture at large.
