Artist Statement Since I was a child, I’ve realized that art is more than colors and figures. In my work, I investigate each element and subject I’m going to be focusing on; first using my heart, and then my sense of reason. Through basic geometry I have found stability and a language of universal art.
One dimensional paintings have proven to be my bigger challenge professionally. Combined with geometric figures, my focus as of late, they simulate a pixel. The moment, at which you handle them with dramatic cuts, they turn into the opposite, an antipixel. This is greatest excitement of my work – visualizing something in my head, working on something without the certainty that it will turn out the way I want, ultimately for the pleasure and the acceptance of my audience.
