Work 2022-2024

My recent work explores the profound aspects of life's journey, including obstacles, adversities, and the transitions between phases that ultimately lead to transformation, emergence, and renewal. My new canvas sculptural pieces uncover a unique beauty in repairing/constructing the fractured pieces and the rebirth of a new being, reflecting the adversities in my own life and healing. Furthermore, the sculptures express various juxtapositions - alter ego vs. the perceived outer image, control vs. release, intentionality vs. spontaneity, reflecting the myriad of struggles encountered by all humans.

Wheelchair track marks and swirls serve as powerful symbols reflecting the individual paths we each navigate throughout our existence. Just as the layers of our life experiences shape our identity, multiple coats of paint unveil the depth and history within each piece. The varied consistencies of poured paint foster organic interactions and reveal captivating imperfections. Water emerges as a prominent motif, embodying fluidity, liberation, and the art of release. The swirls guide the viewer on a journey, replicating the cyclical nature of life and existence. These cyclical patterns reflect the idea that "everything comes full circle," reinforcing the idea that after a healing/repair process, one's journey may return to its aspired state or born anew.
