My paintings explore the lives of familiar objects, animals, and interiors. Through shifts in scale, color, and setting, these subjects expand beyond their original purpose. A bowl, a bottle, or a car becomes a witness to the passage of time, a presence more than a possession.
Rather than focusing on loss, I am interested in what remains and what happens next: how things accumulate histories, absorb or ignore our attention, and continue to evolve long after their original function has faded. By reimagining these familiar subjects, I try to give them the same emotional weight we usually reserve for people.
My practice is rooted in intuition and experimentation, moving between solitude and exposure, control and play. I build each painting as a complete encounter, bold, physical, and emotionally direct, using color and imagery to hold attention and invite prolonged investigation. Familiar figures and deeply personal symbols appear not as explanations, but as open propositions, allowing the work to remain active and unresolved. The studio is a place of testing and discovery for me, where paintings are allowed to assert themselves fully and demand engagement on their own terms.
