Welcome to my portfolio

Title: The Essence of Clay

Year: 2025
Medium & Material: Untreated grey clay and red clay on canvas
Dimensions: 216 × 200 cm
Framing: Hanging scroll format

Description:
The Essence of Clay explores clay not as a sculptural medium but as paint itself. By laying a large canvas on the ground, wetting and pressing raw clay onto its surface, the material revealed its own presence — each movement leaving a fragment of itself behind. The process became an act of surrender, allowing the clay to tell its story through abstract gestures. This stands as both an homage to clay and a discovery of its essence, accentuated by a hanging scroll presentation that liberates the material from the confines of a traditional frame.

Title: The Shape of Intention 

Year: 2025

 Materials: Digital print on 3mm Forex
Size: A4 (21 × 29.7 cm) each
Edition: Unique prints, 7 pieces 

Description:
The Shape of Intention is a quiet meditation on voice, ritual, and the invisible traces they may leave behind. Drawing on the Latin American egg cleanse (limpia con huevo) and Masaru Emoto’s studies of water and consciousness, each piece captures a glass of water holding a single egg, infused with prayers from diverse spiritual traditions.

During the ritual, the egg is held during prayer, then cracked into water—where subtle shifts in form emerge, reflecting how unseen energies like belief and intention might leave their mark in quiet, visual ways. One piece, Silence, remains untouched by prayer, existing as a silent witness.

Together, these images explore a shared human longing for clarity, peace, and connection through sacred voice and gesture.

The collection was shown at an exhibition in Societa Umanitaria>>

Title: Paying Attention

Year: 2025
Materials: Found ceramic coin bank, red clay, digital print on A3 paper
Size: Sculpture approx. 25 × 25 cm, poem on A3 (29.7 × 42 cm)

Description:
Paying Attention began as a response to feeling overwhelmed by information, and the emotional toll of constant input. The work explores attention as a form of currency — limited, valuable, and easily spent without awareness.

The piece includes a poem, printed small and centered on an A3 page to evoke focus, paired with a sculpture that translates the poem’s message into material form. A ceramic coin bank represents the mind's effort to contain and protect attention, while an eye sculpted from red clay sits atop it, symbolizing active awareness. In front, three flat red clay coins suggest moments of scattered focus.

Together, the elements reflect on how attention shapes our reality, urging us to protect it with care.

Poem: PAYING ATTENTION

What if attention was a coin?

Every glance, a payment made

Every thought a dollar spent

What do you feel when you pay the price?

Your attention - more precious than gold,

what you choose to see is what you hold

Guard it wisely, for it is the life you mold.

Title: Brew and Bleed - Collection
Year: 2024
Materials: Coffee, fabric, acrylic paint, digital photography (poster prints)
Edition: Series of unique prints, presented as photographic posters, 3 pieces

Description:
This project began with an invitation to explore unconventional materials in art-making. Choosing coffee as the central medium, I experimented with staining canvas and dipping fabric, allowing the material to bleed, pool, and settle in unpredictable ways. Acrylic paint was added as a second fluid element that interacted with the coffee to form layered, organic marks.

Each print emerged as a unique composition shaped by chance and chemistry. The materials spoke in their own visual language — absorbing, resisting, and blurring into one another without fixed intention. The unpredictability of the process became part of the work’s meaning.

To extend the tactile, process-driven nature of the prints, I photographed the resulting surfaces and transformed them into posters, capturing a moment in the life of each piece, and translating physical texture into a new, reproducible form.

Title: Intergalactic

Year: 2024
Materials: Acrylic paint and structured paper on canvas
Size: 100 × 80 cm

Description:
Intergalactic is an abstract painting that evokes a cosmic journey through the fusion of texture, color, and form. Deep tones of violet, pink, and red blend with shimmering gold accents, creating a celestial atmosphere.

The interaction of these colors, combined with textured folds, suggests something ethereal and timeless — as if capturing a suspended moment within the infinite expanse of space. Straight geometric lines introduce a sense of structure among the organic forms, evoking interstellar energy and the vast, nebular beauty of the cosmos.

Title: The Black Cat

Year: 2023
Medium & Material: Acrylic paint on unstretched canvas
Dimensions: 200 × 142 cm
Framing: Hanging scroll format

Description:
This large-scale abstract painting reflects on the search for identity and the tension between our desire for a fixed self and the fluid, often uncertain nature of being. Hidden within the work is a line of text:
 

“Looking for a permanent identity is like looking for a black cat in a dark room, when the cat isn’t even there.”

The painting explores this idea visually: its layered, intuitive surface becomes a kind of searching, mirroring the process of trying to grasp something intangible. The rolled, unstretched canvas adds to this sense of openness, resisting finality or containment.

Ironically, by the end of the process, a faint sense of the black cat seemed to emerge, not in shape, but in atmosphere. This presence acts as a quiet, almost comic twist: questioning the very idea behind the quote and opening space for reflection about identity.

Title: Waterfall

Year: 2021
Medium & Material: Acrylic paint on stretched canvas
Dimensions: 100 × 100 cm

Description:

Waterfall was created during the pandemic, a time of stillness, isolation, and internal longing. The painting emerged from a feeling of being trapped, while dreaming of movement, nature, and the wider universe.

The work expresses a desire to be near waterfalls, to feel freedom, and to escape into something both vast and unknown. Within its abstract forms lies a tension between logic and intuition, stillness and flow, a meditation on the urge to reconnect with a world that suddenly felt distant and unreachable.
