Artist statement
My works emerge from a direct response to a paradoxical state of consciousness — one filled with contradictions, absurdity, and ongoing conflict.
I work from a place where image, body, and awareness exist in a constant process of deconstruction, suspension, and at times a temporary attempt at reconstruction.
For me, painting is not a representation of crisis but an action taken from within rupture — an attempt to operate from a reality that has lost continuity, security, and a stable symbolic order.
I am not searching for logic — or more precisely, I pause when
Within the act of painting, a tension unfolds between abstraction and figuration, between naïve playfulness and a charged, emotionally personal line, alongside expressions of sexuality, violence, Kafkaesque atmospheres, and dystopia.
There is an attraction to myth, yet also a desire to fracture and dismantle it — including the “inner truth” stored within it.
The visual language I develop does not seek reconciliation, but rather friction, discomfort, and destabilization, in a constant dialogue with the sublime and the beautiful.
