My work explores psychological experiences, memories, and ever-changing situations. We accumulate memories that continually shape and transform us, creating an impression of fluidity in our sense of self. Through blind drawing, I access an unconscious state in order to reflect on these memories. My artwork starts from photographs of family and friends, which I analyze emotionally as part of the creative process. Executed intuitively and quickly, my pieces capture a sense of spontaneity and flux.  I believe nothing is static and ever-lasting and I try to capture this through my paintings.
