My statement as an artist is: "When painting communicates the inner realm of self, cross the boundaries of the human mind, touch the Soul and find revelation through artwork." Abstract Art is the means for me to let the spectator widen his or her perception of one’s self and the spiritual Universe it inhabits. The sole intention and purpose of my work are to communicate the unknown in my subconscious mind, to find the connection with our, as humans, true self, which I believe is something in common, we all possess. I am inspired by great artists such as K.Malevic, W.Kandinsky, F.Kline, Willem de Kooning, M.Chagall. My painting technique is to paint unintentionally, covering layer by layer until the actual artwork arises.I am interested in "the pure logic" of the interconnection of certain images that have aroused in the process, most of it being spontaneous.
