I am inspired by writings, music and artworks which evoke a sense of connection
and timelessness. Intuitive process is the driving force in my most recent body of work where
paintings are characterized by focus on repetition, organic shapes and fluidly applied colour.
Regular periods of quiet and solitude are an essential component of my overall practice, with
painting sessions serving as important meditations where one becomes at once both hyper-aware
and lost in the process. These multi-layered paintings are the result of a continuing
exploration of the blending of traditional elements of Eastern art (balance, simplicity,
"essence") with key elements of Lyrical Abstraction (process, repetition,
spontaneous expression). Multiple layers of glaze, in conjunction with the use of
metallic/iridescent pigments, allow each painting to reveal subtle compositional changes
depending on the precise angle at which light hits the surface of the canvas. Some more
abstracted than others, my paintings are infused with symbols, colours and shapes inspired by
elements of nature.
