ARTIST STATEMENT
Over the past years, my practices have been a way of returning to, and reflection on my own life.
May thoughts pass through me, and I find myself questioning, again and again, what it is we truly seek.
Like many others, I have reached for different things, believing they might fill something within.
Yet the more I search, it never quite feels enough.
The idea of “freedom” began to quietly emerge.
Until one day, I asked myself – what is freedom, really?
Perhaps freedom is not about finding answers, but about no longer needing to search at all.
It is in being present, and seeing that everything simply arrives and eventually passes.
I often find myself looking at the sky, realizing that nothing is every still, not even for a single moment.
Everything is constantly changing- like clouds, shifting form as they keep moving forward.
And so is the human mind.
Looking at the sky, it reminds me of how small we are.
And within that smallness, something in the heart begins to loosen, becoming softer and lighter.
In my earlier works, I often worked with dense lines and instinctive gestures.
But in this body of work, I chose to reduce-
To soften, to remove lines, to quiten the movenet.
And to let go of the need to explain.
It became a process of refinement- of slowly releasing what is unncessary, allowing only what is essential.
And in that process, a sense of lightness has begun to emerge.
