Artist Statement

I always created, painted and craft since I remember, But I abandoned it for a time, until something greater called me back: when God entered my life with intensity, art returned as a response to that encounter. Since then my work reflects this journey. a reflection of that inner transformation — a journey beyond the visible.

Open to endless interpretations and different sensibilities, my search is to narrow the path that leads to the message or the concept I want to express, My artistic process is guided by metaphor, symbolism, and perception. Each piece I create is an exploration of what lies behind the veil of matter, it is the great beyond her that attracts me. A search for hidden layers of reality.

I often feel that what we see is only the surface; the real essence exists beyond form, beyond texture, beyond the hypnotic pull of the material world. Color is my main guide. I believe it holds the power to evoke deep emotional resonance — to move us into states of 'nowhere' and 'now-here.'

Through vibrant tones, layered surfaces, and the fluid dialogue between water and pigment I explore the reality of matter and “what lies beyond its veil”. Reality, to me, is a stratified space. I’m drawn to the most subtle, distant layers — the ones that whisper rather than shout — My work is an attempt to open doors within consciousness, to find entry points into these hidden dimensions.

The action of painting brings me on a journey of which I know nothing about but that feels welcoming and familiar. It is the constant search for these doors that guides the use of colors and their intrinsic character as a link between the different, yet, connected levels.

Water is not just a medium, but a collaborator; the canvas, not merely a surface, but a vessel for that sacred interaction. In this way, my art becomes both prayer and pursuit — a visual language born from silence, guided by faith, and reaching toward what lies beyond.
