At the most basic level, the tensions, contradictions, and complexities of simply existing here, now… often seem too big, too dissonant, and too dreamlike for me to grasp. My attempts to paint them are my way tofind an order in things and often lead to these layered portraits of multiple selves. Subjective snapshots, reflecting the inside out.
"Listening to the Universe" opens a space for the search for the transcendent. The seashell, a symbol of cosmic resonance, becomes a bridge between the inner self and the infinite. The gentle composition and the intimate gesture of the figure capture the moment when the inaudible becomes palpable—a silent dialogue with the metaphysical order of being. In a world of constant noise, the work advocates for a return to the essential, subtle sounds of life and seeks to inspire a dialogue between humanity and the infinite.
