"Painting for me is a reflection of ourselves, kind of like a life sketching of our passions, our desires and our spirituality".
Each work is inspired from everything around me, interrelated with my imagination. My interpretation of reality, wether being a person, place, nature, or music, is a source of motivations that reaches deep inside and then reflects my own interpretation of reality.
Although my paintings regularly invite careful observation, the transparent wall still remains concealed as a second meaning and something beyond ...
Often, my images will become accessories to other creations, trying to confuse the eye and to transcend the appearance first. Thus, the original idea will be reinforced or complemented by a second concept.
Color is another fundamental element of my work, as it plays an important role in defining my style. Research, selection and composition of tones allow me to create moods and atmospheres, in order to reach my own emotional balance. |
