The concept of "the self" is multifaceted, encompassing various contexts such as psychology, philosophy, and art. It includes our identity shaped by personal beliefs, values, experiences, and characteristics. My work aims to capture the complexity of our identities within the social and political landscape. As my art career evolves, so does the narrative of my subjects and my creative style. Each artwork examines the intricate layers of my artistic journey, contrasting the individual’s constant change while navigating the dualities of chaos and peace. This journey of self-observation invites viewers to engage with the complexities of identity and emotion. Throughout my career, my artistic style has evolved due to personal growth, experimentation, and a deeper understanding of my subjects. Initially, I embraced a more expressionist style, channeling raw emotions and immediate responses to my experiences. As I explored the complexities of identity, my approach shifted towards a more abstract style, allowing me to delve into concepts beyond the literal. Recently, my canvas work has transitioned to a more figurative style, driven by a desire to connect intimately with viewers and explore the nuances of human experience through traditional portraiture. This transformation reflects my ongoing journey of self-discovery and the fluid nature of identity. READ MORE
In this technological era, I draw inspiration from social culture and human relationships, which profoundly influence my work. Nature also helps me connect with what truly matters. Influential artists like Francisco de Goya and Francis Bacon have shaped my artistic journey, while my current focus remains on the dynamics of social culture, human connections, and the natural world. As I embrace new technologies and integrate them into my art, their influence is reflected in the transcending narratives of The Nature's Intricate Tapestry series. My interdisciplinary practice serves as a dynamic framework for exploring complex themes that reflect the intricacies of human experience. By integrating various mediums—such as painting, installation, digital media, and performance—I create a rich tapestry of ideas that challenge conventional boundaries and invite diverse interpretations. My primary goal is for art to be a catalyst for transformation and connection. I believe art has the power to provoke emotional responses and stimulate critical reflections, encouraging viewers to confront their own beliefs and experiences. I envision my art as a dialogue—a bridge connecting the personal with the universal, the intimate with the collective. By inviting viewers to participate in this conversation, I aim to inspire greater awareness of ourselves and the world around us, ultimately fostering a sense of community and shared humanity. Through my practice, I strive to illuminate the beauty and complexity of our existence, encouraging a deeper exploration of the themes that unite us all. READ LESS
