Visual attraction, rational observation, stream of consciousness.
Kinesthetic, visual episodic effects. Strengthening and weakening.
Archetypal metaphor.
Devotional.
Deprived of a clear narrative.
Each of my works, whether on paper or canvas, is thematically filled with dialogues, power, codes, and passion…
The technique on paper is based on ink flows, creating a dynamic tension, balancing on the edge between form and decomposition, between completion and uncertainty. Ink and water become metaphors of movement, a link between the material and the ephemeral.
The deliberate deformation of the paper surface, scraping, tearing, and the addition of rice paper becomes an analogue of skin—its curves, roughness, traces of time, and touch—eliciting in the viewer a literal, almost tangible desire to touch the textures.
Canvas offers a slower, more layered process, where materials are built up, erased, and reworked to reveal depth and tension.
Each surface invites a different kind of engagement, but both are part of the same ongoing exploration of the human experience—its silences, fragilities and inner landscapes in sacred language.
Focusing on visual effects, on the interplay of light and shadow, and the contrasts between rough and soft textures, the combinations and interactions make each of my works truly minimalist in form and profound in content.
My work often unfolds in series, each one driven by a specific visual and conceptual research. I am drawn to themes such as transformation, memory, and embodiment, and I aim to create open visual spaces where viewers can reflect and interpret freely.
I’m glad you’re here - something connects us!
