bio

Painting for me is a form of structured yet personal research — a slow unfolding of inner questions, memories, and ideas. I work in series, each one developing around a specific intellectual challenge, following a deliberate and programmatic structure.


Previous series like Cracks in the Past explored the fragmentation of memory, while Ribbon Fabrics reflected on the slow healing of old wounds through layers and textures. My current series, Relations, focuses on how we exist alone, in pairs, in groups — and how these dynamics are expressed through form, rhythm, and space.


Using both drawing and painting, I build compositions where minimalist language meets emotional resonance. I seek not reduction, but clarity — a quiet intensity where balance, contrast, and silence all have their place. For me, each painting is not a statement, but an open question, an invitation into reflection.
