Recent Works  

 

During 2002-03 I painted a series of small and large abstract landscapes using matt backgrounds at the top and bottom and glossy, layered middle parts. These works look great on a large scale The concept is of a camera shutter opening and closing in an instant of time to record the image. The matt is peaceful and quiet. When I close my eyes, I cannot hear the sea or the wind without my hearing aids. When I open my eyes I can see the sounds of the sea.

I want to look into my soul and search for inner meaning through the exploration of different personal experiences. Paintings contain the language and emotions of the artist's creative processes, reduced and confined from the mental images and inner characteristics of the individual.
