Exploring the Unpredictable

Working with ink on paper allows me to embrace the beauty of unpredictability and the captivating dance. It demands a delicate balance of manipulating water’s movement while patiently awaiting its slow drying process. Whether working with ink on paper or sculpting with clay, I allow the creative process to unfold naturally, having no preconceived notions of the outcome. This intuitive approach to form, often referred to as “organic abstraction,” allows my work to take on a non-objective nature, shaped by my deep-rooted fascination with color, organic forms, and design elements. Biomorphic shapes, reminiscent of nature’s intricate patterns, serve as the visual language through which I express my artistic vision.
