Statement

I’m an abstract painter drawn to the idea that painting isn’t just visual – it’s physical, emotional and alive. I think of abstraction as a language that communicates through colour, surface and structure – not through pre-planned ideas, but through the act of making itself.

For me, colour carries weight. It’s not there to decorate. It drives the energy of the work. I move between muted tones and bold saturation, allowing moments of tension, harmony and surprise to emerge. These shifts give the painting its rhythm, its pulse.

Each piece starts without a fixed plan. It’s a process of discovery, of reacting, layering, abrading and responding again. The surface holds the memory of those decisions, like a kind of lived history. I’m not aiming to tell a story or explain something – I want the viewer to feel the work in their body, to slow down, to tune into its presence.

My work reflects how I think about perception, place and identity. It’s a space for encounter – open-ended, reflective and deeply personal.
