My work seeks to unveil the spirit that breathes life into both seen and unseen realms. Drawing on my experiences in theatre and psychology, along with inspirations from mythology and music, I investigate creativity itself—aiming not just to produce art but to grasp the vitality that fuels artistic expression. I find deep inspiration in the unfiltered creativity of children before formal instruction, ancient and indigenous cultural practices, and the genuine voices of outsider artists. The philosophy of Wabi-Sabi, which finds beauty in imperfection and embraces the natural world, profoundly influences my approach. For instance, the cracked textures of sun-baked earth evoke the subtle beauty of transient moments and natural rhythms. My background in art history links me to artists such as Van Gogh, Cézanne, the der Blaue Reiter Expressionists Gabriel Münter and Paul Klee, and Wassily Kandinsky. Their capacity to portray an essential life force remains a continual source of inspiration. I concentrate on purposeful mark-making and the dynamic interaction of color to express the life energy inherent in all things. Through the elements of form, color, and texture, I invite viewers to perceive the spirit vibrating just beneath the surface.
