Artist Statement
There’s a ritualistic rhythm to my process—rooted deep in the psyche and spirit. I create abstract, autonomic landscapes shaped by mythologies like shamanism, astrology, esoteric thought, and dreamwork.
Fire is a central element in my practice. With smoke, I draw skeletal maps—burning outdated versions of myself and revealing new pathways through memory, emotion, and transformation.
The synergy between smoke, movement, and color forms the muscle of my work. Each layer holds its own sense of time and space. Every painting becomes a metaphoric terrain—where ghosts, flesh, dreams, and fantasies converge. These pieces aren’t fixed; they’re portals. Each one offers a glimpse into infinite, coexisting worlds.
“Gray Matters” explores the space between black and white—not as indecision, but as freedom.
The gray area is a non-judgmental zone where conditioned responses begin to dissolve. It’s where duality breaks down, and the self can awaken to the vibrancy of new perspectives. In this space, we can question old frameworks, reimagine who we are, and rebuild ourselves with intention and creativity.
For me, the gray isn’t neutral—it’s powerful. It’s where transformation lives.
