“I paint life, I paint what I live. I paint to feel alive. I experiment with infinite freedom of color, its boundless possibilities. I jump into the void.”
My work deals with process, meaning continuous actions and changes going on. Delivering emotions. The more emotions I can remove, the more free I am to make that gesture, whatever the gesture is.
I am always examining my surroundings, being conscious and aware to how things change minute to minute.
In my paintings I work with layers, multiple lines that are related to one another, drawings and forms that I erase and destroy to rebuild new ones – it is a continuous process that takes me outside of myself and past myself.
