Artist Statement
“Transparency is the quintessence of bare reality. It remains constant on my
surfaces. I express the stark reality of life - blended with feelings. In the remote
recesses of my subconscious lies an effort to create a spiritual climate that touches
the heart. I feel a sense of new liberty when the beauty of every form is clear,
visible and not overlapping each other, it creates a multidimensional view.
I have expressed my outrage at the hypocrisy in life - religious, social,
economics - that cloak and disguise our true intentions.
In my works, is revealed a world emphasizing the simplicity and
joy of spiritual contentment in contrast to the contemporary
situation that face the bizarre perils of life.
I have peeled off layer by layer the pretensions, exposing the fables that
determine our lives. My search is to seek the new possibilities in realism.”
