Artist Statement
My work draws inspiration from early to mid-20th century movements and styles like Bauhaus, Colour Field, Op Art, and Minimalism. These traditions have provided me with a unique perspective that allows me to see the world through abstract lenses. I transform objects, landscapes, emotions, and thoughts into lines, shapes, forms, and colours.
I firmly believe that everyone carries significant memories within themselves. These memories are often tied to imagery, smells, tastes, sounds, and touch. They contribute greatly to our identity and sense of self.
Through my abstract paintings, my goal is to portray both internal and external spaces, capturing subjective experiences and memories. The psychology of colour and the symbolism of geometric forms deeply fascinate me.
