Artist Statement
My intricate compositions aim to stimulate the viewer, opening up the notion of interpretation. Today where so much information is flooding us, what we hope to feel yourself mind something that is unfathomable by reasons and by brains. I don’t really think there is any need to explain the work. I think that art is about being as it is. Art is not about understanding what it is. Paradoxically, if it can be explained, it doesn’t have to be art. When you think about who art is for, you don’t really need the artist’s name or title.
My Art does not require explanation, it will communicate with the universal and deeply origin consciousness. My artwork will ask for primitive sensitivities of people today. Today, where so much information is flooding our daily lives, perhaps what we need is the imagination to feel and think with new perspectives. I believe that a lack of imagination threatens the peace and creates a world where hatred prevails to the point that we even take the lives of other people. My works provide one means to rediscover and awaken the memory of human DNA that has been dormant since ancient times. Art does not require explanation, it communicates with a universal and collective consciousness.
