About

My artworks offer a personal synthesis in the search for identity through the fragility of memory, capturing my own life with unfinished paintings, without beginning or end, always in the process of change and creation. I am interested in memory’s indispensable function of connection-making and its role in the construction of the inner-self and intimacy.

I know that a memory doesn’t have to look like the real world. A memory can be a conversation, a smell, a tickle in the tip of your nose. I express my inner thoughts with what can be describe as like irrational strokes, which to me are evocative of a memory.

In my paintings there is a tremendous curiosity to delve into unexplored territories, to reveal forms that dissolve as soon as I manage to look at them, and to look into the abyss from fragility and subtlety, from doubt and humility.
