My work starts with an impulse that becomes a dialogue between materials, gestures and internal inquiries about the nature of art and my relationship to it. The blurry line where the artist's work ends and the art begins, that point in between is what drives me.

There is a unsettled quality that arises between habits and tendencies, and that which emerges. The pigment and texture of the casein paint on wood panels have a grounding effect while their vertical composition aligns me spiritually. It is an intimate process, to witness and surrender to what is present without influencing the internal dynamics.

Intrinsically spiritual, the work is a continuous practice of contemplation. I reflect on it as a catalyst where the divine and the mundane merge.
