My paintings are an investigation of visual vocabularies; a playful exploration of form, colour combinations, and patterns that represent a private, abstract language. I do not attempt to decode the symbols, only to find what resonates within me. I love translating digital motifs physically, meticulously reproducing forms by hand, embracing anomalies as imperfect “perfection.”
Rhythm and repetition work like meditation for me, and I am no longer thinking, only looking and feeling. From slow and deliberate to impulsive and fast, I want to capture the vibrancy of motion. The large canvas allows me to express freedom and exuberance, yet my marks and gestures attempt to attain a balance between discipline and play, spontaneity and control.
The canvas mirrors and exaggerates my wonder and joy in the power of paint and invites viewers to share in a visceral experience of it. But the paintings must also remain autonomous. They have their own life and personality.
