Statement
While I draw inspiration from the colours and shapes of the natural world, my work takes a purely abstract direction, rooted in zen aesthetics. I rely on intuition, emotion and spontaneity rather than representing the natural world directly. Pouring, dripping and washing diluted inks and pigments onto the canvas, I gently manoeuvre them with brushes and air manipulation, allowing them to blend and evolve, creating earthy patterns and textures.Through an ongoing editing process, I distil the chaos of the artwork, eliminating distractions or unnecessary areas, gradually unveiling a composition that breathes with space, naturalness and simplicity.
