MY APPROACH
My practice questions the fast-paced and stressful nature of a society constantly besieged from various angles. I delve into crucial subjects such as the environment, wildlife, identity, and population movements. Witnessing the rapid urbanization and its detrimental effects on the environment has motivated me to explore environmental issues more deeply through my art. My ultimate objective is to create artwork that is not only visually appealing but also thought-provoking.
My work combines both traditional and innovative techniques. In an age dominated by digital imagery, my dedication to painting remains paramount. It allows me to dive into layers of emotion and thought, creating tactile and visceral experiences for viewers to connect with. These experiences aim to evoke deep emotional responses. While embracing the opportunities presented by technology, I also integrate immersive digital and installation experiences into my art. This synthesis of traditional and contemporary methods helps me develop new perspectives and continually evolve my thinking and artistic experimentation, mirroring the ever-changing nature of our society.
My goal is to incite conversations, spark imagination, and challenge viewers' perception. I want to encourage contemplation of the intricate dynamics that intertwine our society and the environment we inhabit.
