Artist Statement
Artist Statement
My art emerges instinctively through a process akin to automatism, where emotions and experiences are visually translated into forms and scenes. Joy, loss, memory, experience, music, nature, and light inspire me and shape the narratives within my pieces.
My guiding energy is the need to bring light, color, and human touch to the world. Some of my works are escapist fantasy worlds. Some focus on shape, color, form, and light. I am fascinated by perception and the ambiguity of light in my works.
I balance my artistic intuition with intention and spontaneity, letting emotions and memories guide my brush and palette. Even when I begin with a plan or direction, my art evolves unexpectedly, often transcending my original vision. The meanings of my works often grow to be completely different from what I had initially intended.
