My abstract paintings are
expressive. My work is not
about what I see, but what I
feel and cannot say. My art
emanates from inspiration.
Andre Breton captures my
thoughts, "Beloved
imagination, what I most like
in you is your unsparing
quality.” When I am painting,
I have the expansive
experience of a soul
expressing and creating beyond
its horizons.
I work with unexpected
mediums, expressed in acrylic,
oils, charcoal, graphite, ink
and pencils, on synthetic
panels, sheets of glass,
wooden boards, concrete, paper
and canvas. Most of my works
are in large formats, and
often presented in series.
At present, I am working with
the circle image. Circles and
their intersections have
always inspired me, often
representing the intersection
of souls. My current series
conveys, through the circle
image, the universal
phenomenon of human encounter.
My ubran series examines human
encounter with the urban
environment.
I desire to experience and
explore what I can create with
my hands and my mind. I am,
and always will be, in the
process of learning. Every new
work is somehow expected and,
in more ways, surprising.
